    Alternator? try puttin new brushes in that. might fix the lights dimming and maybe make it run better.. just check fuses/ relays to be sure theres nothin simple too...could be the temp sensor stuffing the gauge up.. as for the brake making it run rough I have no idea..

    pretty sure it's behind the throttle body on the inlet manifold, can't remember 100 % tho..
    also mite pay to do a fault code check first. there is a good thread on how to do it and what all the faults mean on here. I'd start off with that.
