You can cut the wire to your sensor "eye" that's on top of your dash near the windshield. Then just use your factory switch to turn them on and off.

camaro 22 -- do you know if this would work on a 2000 Blazer? I don't have auto headlights on my 94Z but the Blazer has 'em and they suck.

Re: Automatic Headlights?

When I got rid of it on my SS I pulled the center defrost grill up so I could get to the bottom of the light sensor.
Disconnect the plug from the bottom of the sensor and use a cut down paper clip or piece of safety wire to complete the circuit on the plug.
Wrap some electrical tape around the plug so that the wire doesn't end up grounding out against anything.
Less than 15 minutes and you're done.

Not sure were camaro 22 heard about just cutting the wire to the sensor unless the set-up on '97's are different though.

I love you, man! Thanks for the link - I was having no luck with searches on the ZR2 board I am on.
