I used aftermarket push/pull light switch w/ rheostat for gauge lights. I used push button at end of turn signal stalk (Russ's turn signal assy.) for the high beams.
I used a 2 position 2 pole toggle switch with center off.
Left...turns on parking lights and low beams
Right..turns on parking lights and high beams and blue indicator and gauge lights.
center is off
I don't have a dimmer
I bought Lucas toggles from Finish Line and used Russ's turn signal switch. I modified the headlight switch that FFR gives you so that I could use the rheostat part for the gauges and the pull out part for my hazards
I used FFR's light switch as others have discussed (IE, has the built in reostat for guage dimming). I also used the momentary switch on the end of Russ's turn signal stock. If doing this, you simply have to wire in a latching relay which allows the momentary switch to toggle from high to low beam. Sweet set up!
