Or how about a switch with 2 different resistor values?

I was thinking, instead, of using some series diodes on the "positive" wire. Each diode will drop a specific, fixed, voltage. This way, the gauges will always be a fixed amount dimmer than they were originally, and still nicely track my other dash lights.
