Roger, yes, there should be a small wire comming off your negative battery cable end that would connect to your fender with a screw.  When I first got my Monte that wire was missing and if driving at night when I would have my headlights on and turned on a turn signal all of the lights would dim with the turn signals flashing.  Once I hooked that wire to the fender it corrected that issue.  

I do think there are other things that can cause lights to fluctuate but that would be the cheapest repair.

X2 to what Rob said. Hook the smaller wire up to the fender.
