Default Help: C5 problems :(

ok i just got my vette back from the body shop last night and I have a weird problem, the headlights come on almost everytime I turn the car on automatically, and I cant turn them off some of the time. Is there a way to turn the auto headlights off?

also, I just installed an aftermarket head unit last night, and there's a gap between the radio itself and the din it sits in. Is there something I can put there to take up the rest of the space? or a plate to block the hole?

also, do i need an antenna adaptor to plug into the new head unit? thanks guys

What year is your car? If its a 2000 on up, go to your options button that is on the dash besides the steering wheel and program it from there.
