With regard to dimming its a piece of cake with these switches.
As they are double pole switches use 1 side for the fog on/off and the other for the tell.
After a lot of searching I've come up with an easy wiring no diodes as per some threads. Here goes
1. Output to led
2.tell input (fog)
3. 12v from side lights via 5k resistor

I need to have a fiddle with a 5k and 10k as to the brightness I want (5k surgested on locost builders)

I don't know about wiring the hazard as I don't have that switch.
Hi Steve,
Some very useful info there
Well my fog light switch is going to be replaced anyway now as it don't switch...LOL
Hazard switch works Ok but damn they are bright.
