    on my car at least, theres four settings for the headlights, off, parking lights, on, and brights. The parking lights one just turns teh fogs on for me, it doesnt open the headlights, I know this doesnt help but I figured id post it neway.

      ok..to disable your automatic headlights...

      try and follow this diagram and read on to try and follow me....goto radioshack get a dual throw switch...3 leads off of it....+ , ground , and the second +....if you remove the center thing around your radio and removing your radio helps too...you will be able to lift your dash up slightly...just enough to get to the vents on your dash..y'know where the led for the alarm is...following me so far?...ok right next to the led you will see a sensor (little black thing) with two wires coming out of it...the way this works is when 2.37volts(I believe, did it a while ago)is sent through to your the blue wire the car thinks its nighttime....when no voltage is sent through its daytime...now you can tottaly disable your auto headlights by removing this sensor...you'll then have to use the switch everytime....or if you make the somewhat complicated switch you can choose.... ;) ...hope this helps

        This is all you have to do. You don't even have to use a resistor. You can just use a jumper wire. (I used a resistor just in case)
