Haha I like my dimmer too much but that's a cool idea...good stuff man.

Just order some of the hole covers or find some at a junkyard...the ones where the foglight switch goes in those two empty holes, do a little bit of dremel work and some way to fasten it and put the dimmer there? Then you can have it up for bright down for dim...just a thought.

If I were to do this I would go this route.

I have my fuel killswitch wired with it. When the killswitch is flipped off, the security light stays on(no blinking).
