It would help more if you post up what brand overlay you installed and/or pics.
Some brand overlays throw out more light than others.
But I know what you're talking about and yes, it's normal.

Did you take pictures (or note) of where the needles used to lie at idle?
If you know what pressure you were at at idle just pull the cover off the cluster while idleing and adjust the needle.
In the case that you have no clue what it should be at then take a trip to the stealership and have them recalibrate. $$$
Or just fudge it like most people do.

I have no clue what it costs. I think I remember reading $300 somewhere ... hopefully someone can chime in that knows what's they're doing.

You can see the pic on their site, there is a good amount of extra light coming out.
Seems normal.
