Sounds an awful lot like a failing alternator to me, and no I would not spend time swapping plugs and DIC's etc, that was meant for the thread below yours! If you measure the voltage across the alternator and it is bad, that is a pretty good sign, especially with the fading lights, wipers, radio, etc.
I would also get the battery tested, as a weak battery can be hard on the alternator and also look into cable condition.
