They make universal remotes for ceiling fans. Hunter is a good brand. The one that I have has a button on it that you push once to turn the light on/off or you hold it to dim the light. You just have to make sure that you have enough room to put the remote sensor up inside the fan. The package gives you wiring instructions but it's fairly simple.
