thank you for the information.
What i need to do is convert the stock wiring, with the push/pull dimmer switch, into toggle switches. The main light switch operates by pushing in and pulling out. I want to put the headlights onto a toggle switch, and also the dashboard and interior lights.There would end up with at least 3 toggle switches for controlling the lights. I don't need to dim the lights.
The car has original wiring for the lights.

It'll take some REALLY heavy-duty switches (and a new fuse for each) to replace the factory h/l sw. The h/l bulbs pull ~15A, and the parking light circuit needs to be able to carry 10A in case a trailer is connected. Little plastic Chinese switches that claim to be rated for 15A won't last a month in this application, and an overloaded switch can start a fire in the dash.
The best move is to keep the factory switch.

You can use even the cheap switches if you use relays for the load side of circuit, and the switch just fires the relay. The relay which will handle the high amp load is the way to go,also as mentioned above fuse all the switches.
