After popping out the photocell


Wrapped a bit of aluminum foil around the base. Just removing the sensor still causes the lights to come on when dark by the way. I think there still needs to be a flow of electrictiy - not sure though.

Notice the lack of headlights with the ignition key turned (car isn't running, just electrical which would normally cause lights to come on)

That'* rain on the windshield if you're wondering -key still turned too.


Props again to Cheetah! Once the DRL'* are disabled, us 96-05'* can acheive total headlight control over that damn twilight sentinel



my sensor looks nothing like that........idk where to put the foil
