If you want it not to dim, just use the green wire for power and a true ground (any white with black stripe or direct to chassis metal).

Most things vary with the year, but this is constant through the third gen. Circuit diagram from 2000 attached.
That's what I did wrong! I assumed solid green was ground (I do more household electrical that vehicles) so my switch would brighten when everything else was dimmed. Good to know, I'll just switch the wired around then.
