Default Auto headlights
Hi gang
Is there anyway to change the auto light sensitivity ? I would like them to turn on sooner than they are .

Why not just do it manually! Lol...

You could apply nite shades tint to the sensor, if your wanting them on sooner.

There is a setting in the dash system for it. I have the screen in my cluster. If you don't, I don't know how to access the setting.

Pretty sure the only setting in that menu is for how long they stay on after ignition is turned off.

Ah, I thought it meant how long it sensed darkness before tuning on. Silly me.

Just toss a hat over the sensor, and then your lights will cone on.

If you don't have dual zone climate control, tinting the sensor is probably the best idea.
