Mod to control all interior lights from factory dimmer?

I know this topic has been discussed before but to my knowledge no one has detailed a solution.
I’d really like to be able to control all interior lights from the factory dimmer switch. Unfortunately, I am horrible at wiring and reading an electrical schematic.
Plan “A” or me is to utilize the factory switch. Plan “B” is to add a second switch next to the factory dimmer.

If anyone else is interested in making this happen please chime in.
Since I’m useless in the tech department ,I’d be happy to provide funding or parts necessary to get a step by step DIY project going or a turn key solution.

Dimmer Control Switch

This is also the issue I am having with my 2017 SR5. The dimmer control switch should do just that, control the instrument cluster panel brightness and turn on the interior lights. I found that when I scroll up and click it, nothing happens. I looked at the fuses and nothing is blown. I have checked the switches on the lights to make sure they weren't in the off position. I even replaced the dimmer control switch (funny thing, I couldn't find it anywhere else except eBay, not even RockAuto had it or Amazon :shocked:) . Even that didn't solve the problem. I am just at a loss right now. I don't have the time nor the money to take it in to have it get looked at and spend over $100 to have someone tell me I need to spend even more plus labor for something that I may be able to do.

I hope you found a solution.
