I posted a thread last year regarding this and another member suggested I cover up the illumination using black electrical tape over the dash lights that are being reflected.

Well at first I did not want to do this hoping I would get use to it but never did so a few small pieces of tape did the trick.

Noticed when driving in urban areas with plenty of lights from buildings, houses and street lamps the reflection is much less apparent but when I'm on a 2 lane rural road with no street lights it always looks like a vehicle is coming up from behind to pass me in the opposite lane.

Use the tape.

its normal and YES tinting the windows will make it worse. I can see all my interior reflections from my lights because my windows are so dark. If I have my under dash and backseat interior LEDS on I have to roll the windows down slightly as the reflection makes it impossible to see out if there are no street lights etc around.
