Here is version 3 of my patch (this replaces and includes version 3).
Changes relative to version 2:

* Revert the part about key "c" to hide the aircraft; instead, simply
  add <allow-toggle-cockpit>true</allow-toggle-cockpit> to make the
  Seneca II behave like all other aircraft.

* Make the NAV1, NAV2, ADF and DME instruments use the radio light
  dimmer (which was previously inoperative) and have the same color;
  white, since NAV1 and NAV2 are not specific to the Seneca II but are
  shared between various aircraft.  Most importantly, the knobs are lit,
  too, and therefore visible at night even without Ctrl+C.

* Models/dme.xml:
  - Do not use a SenecaII-specific copy of the ki266 DME instrument; use
    the shared one instead.
  - Override the lighting to use the property /controls/lighting/radio-norm
    instead of .../instruments-norm.

* Instruments-3d/ki266.{xml,ac}: remove.

With this new version of the patch, the Seneca II becomes really easy to
fly at night: enter the cockpit, do Seneca > Overhead light on/off; now
the two dimmers (instrument and radios) become visible; you can then
ether toggle them (left-click) or adjust them (mouse wheel).  The
instruments are orange, the radios are white.  As in version 2, the
overhead lights also illuminate the throttle, RPM, mixture, flaps and
cowl flaps levers as well as the left-hand electrical switches
(magnetos, battery, lights, etc.).

I think it would be nice if this patch were included upstream in the
upcoming FlightGear 3.2.
