Thanks for the reply.
The headlights are off but the gauge/dash lights are still bright as they are during daytime.
Since I've had the truck the gauge lights are always on when the truck is running. Bright during daytime and they dim when the autolamp kicks in when it is dark enough.
See attached picture with headlight position. (This is in the middle of the night while truck is running)

If the "dark car" mode doesn't disable the dash lights i doubt i'll go to the trouble of doing it. I don't really mind the car lighting up when i unlock/exit it or anything. By dash lights i also mean the gauge lights btw. It'd be nice if the ambient sensor would automatically dial the gauge/dash lights down if they're going to stay on at night with the headlights off.

nvm; just looked at the IDS info on their website... very complex/costly system... will just have to find someone with it.
