On your dash is a little round switch with a ballast resistor in it, by turning it clock wise or counter clock wise you can change the settings and intensity of your dash lights.

Dash lights come on with the headlights then shut off

Do you have a dimmer for interior lamps? Like a rheostat, a little wheel that you turn up or down to brighten or dim interior lamps. Usually the instrument cluster lamps brighten and dim the same way.
Can you brighten and dim the other interior lamps?

Lights keep going dim on mini cooper s 2007 dashboard

You don't say if it's "just" the dash lights, or if other lights do it as well. Try turning on a dome light and see if the dome light does it along with the dash lights. Do you notice your headlights doing this as well? These are just troubleshooting steps. If multiple light sources (dome, headlight, etc.) do it, then it's most likely a voltage regulator issue.
