I always liked seeing my car comedown the auto carwash with the headlights on lol, well, not my car, my dads cars though...
No flamming needed for using the automatic carwashes, thank you.

some advice for what it's worth...it would be a lot better to take out the cd player and get to the sensor that way in my opinion...i have pretty big hands and back when i tried this by going under the back platic dash piece i cracked it and it's pretty expensive....just my 2 cents

I just cut the sensor off and spliced the wires together. I've had it like this for over 3 years now and it's not caused any problems. I never added any wires or resistors like a lot of guys say you have to.
