The lights are dimming because the starting current of the garbage disposal is causing a voltage drop, is the dimming prolonged or just for a few seconds? Do the lights come back to their full brightness or do they stay dim as long as the disposal runs? Check all electrical connections at breakers and neutral bar for over heating and tightness. Have your utility check the service and service lateral. Everything checks out find, inspect the starting capacitors in the disposal.

Some lights won't dim. If you've installed the switch properly, and are using traditional incandescent bulbs (not flourescent, LED, E-L lights or any other very low current light), the dimmer will dim the bulbs. Make sure you're using a dimmable bulb and that the dimmer is installed properly.

You probably don't need to change the dash lights. On the headlight panel there is a control to dim or brighten the dash lights. This same control allows you to turn them completely off.
