Lights

All of the lights look normal on the car, but when I rev the engine they all go brighter - just a bit. The alternator was replaced about a 2 months ago, and has been working fine ever since - also the gauge reads fine.

Any ideas on if this is an alternator problems?

Okay, great thank you. I just never noticed it before I suppose, and I know a lot of other vehicles do it slightly.

One of the problems related to only a 70 amp alternator with loads of electrical systems to run off of it
