You can get Variable Resistors, like this,

And then add a control knob,

Wasn't there a unit made for the afterburner lights which lit the brake leds at half bright for the sidelights then full bright when the brakes were applied??

Can't remember the blokes name now (Simon??) he's got the black/red turbo and it's been in Total Vauxhall...

I use a 1K variable resistor from maplin for controlling the 12 volt fans on my PC. If you use that you can fine tune the voltage. Then just add a switch to kick the resistor in or out the supply loop.
