Nav lights

The lack of brightness of aircraft lighting during the day is a limitation of how MSFS 2024 handles aircraft lighting. The lighting in all of our MSFS 2024 aircraft has been fine-tuned to have realistic brightness levels at night, which does mean that certain lights can look dim or not lit during the day. If we were to increase the brightness of the lights to make them visible during the day, then that would have the side effect of making the lights extremely bright at night.
There are various bug reports logged for this on the offical MSFS Forum. For example: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/aircraft-external-lights-barely-visible-during-daytime/671317
We remain hopeful that this may be something that will be improved in future MSFS Sim Updates.
The low-res textures in your screenshot, we can't confidently say the cause of with the limited information in the post.
As a first step, we would recommend checking the Texture Resolution settings in MSFS 2024. The higher this is set, the higher resolution the textures will be, but at the expense of FPS/performance.
If you have a PC with a GPU featuring 12GB of VRAM or more, we have an optional 8K cockpit textures available for download here: https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000134893-f28-professional-8k-cockpit-textures
There are also automatic performance-saving measures built into MSFS 2024 that will automatically downscale a texture sheet's resolution when the sim thinks most of the texture sheet is off the screen. Depending on where the camera was placed when the screenshot was taken, the sim may be automatically downscaling those textures.
