I'd like to know that myself.

I like to drive w/my headlights on in the day time, and especially when off road.

You'd be surprise how it helps the other driver to see you.

You notice a vehicle much sooner w/their headlights on vs. not.

I believe in Canada, they are required by law, to be always on.

@linskyaz; @GoHack; I have a JLU Sport S with the halogens and I have automatic headlights...so I’m sure it’s doable. Not sure what parts you need though...I imagine just the sensor, the switch, wiring for at least the sensor (maybe...just maybe the switch harness is pre-wired), and maybe a computer flash.

Don’t you have an auto selection on your dial?

I am trying to figure out if theres an aftermarket distributer that has the necessary pieces to make them automatic

Ah...I see. I’m not sure about an aftermarket solution...but if you find one, be sure to update everyone...I may not need it, but it’d be nice to know if it exists or not.
