That's called a headlight dimmer switch. They cost about $20.

The cruise control signal switch is in the end of the of the directional arm; however it does not change the headlights from low to high beam. When you pull on the directional arm there is a lever that connects to the "headlight dimmer switch" and changes the headlights form low to high beam and vise versa.
