[DeTomaso] Hot Dimmer Switch

     I ran for years with no dimmer switch for the gauges.  After installing the new AutoMeter speedo and tach,  I hooked up the dimmer switch again because the new units were so bright.  Now that dimmer runs hot.  It gets so hot that I'm pretty sure if given enough time,  the bezel will be too hot to touch.  My main concern here is fire.  Has anyone out there replaced their rheostat with something a little more efficient?
