My buddy bought a used 99' Trans Am that has auto-headlights. The fockers pop up in the shade for crying out loud and its really annoying. I never knew they used that feature on the Pontiacs...anyone ever hear of this? Is there anyway to disable this?

Very easy to disable though. Just lift the dash pad and unplug the twilight sentinnel. Then jumper the two terminals in the plug and button everything back up. This allows everything else to work normally but headlights have to be manually turned on.

It started earlier than 98 up here. My 95 Formula has automatic headlights too, so did my 95TA. I believe all 4th gen Firebirds up here got auto headlights, since they all got DRLs too.
