Default headlight on delay after engine start

Hi,
is a possibility to set a delay for headlamps on after engine start?
Now, when I start the engine, the headlights come on and flash when the engine is starting.
This is annoying and for sure not healthy for LED bulbs.

In my previous cars, when starting the engine, the headlights were momentarily turns off and automatically on after starting the engine.

There's a manual delay switch. It's enabled by turning the headlight **** all the way counter clockwise.
Sorry, that's a smartass response but couldn't resist. I do actually use that method all the time in one of my other cars to keep the auto lights from turning on because I usually start it before I've removed my sunshade which covers the light sensor.

No remote start?
