What am I missing with my dimmer switch?

So I have swapped out my entire interior harness and my new harness has a 4 pinned connector with 3 wires going into it (4th spot is blank) in the spot that the interior dimmer should plug in. On my old harness, the connector is only a 2 pin and only has 2 wires going into it. The 4runner is a 1984 originally carb'd and the donor harness is from an '87 or so. Every picture of every dimmer I can find for sale or just on the internet looks like the dimmer that is already in my truck which this connector won't fit in. Even pictures of dimmer switches advertised to fit the '87. How is this possible? Am I missing something? Why can't I find the correct mystery dimmer that I am looking for? Is there a way to just bypass the dimmer switch so my interior lights just work? I don't care right now if the dim...I just need gauge lights at night and I can worry about the whole dimmer thing later. Please help me out! Thanks!
