Eric, you might check your fuse box and the connectors. I had similar
problems with my lights (parking and turn signal luckily). Cleaned the
connectors, and all the lights are much brighter.
The dash switch is held in by a (not to strong) plastic frame. My broke the
other day as well. Just got the replacement in from Moss and will install
it this weekend (after I get through figuring out my starter problem.)
Cheers and Happy New Year,
Nick
