I thought the rear view and driver's side auto dimming mirrors work together. At least that's the way they work in my Silverado. From 2010 Camaro Owner's Manual:

Automatic Dimming
Rearview Mirror
Vehicles with an automatic dimming
inside rearview mirror reduces
the glare from the headlamps of the
vehicle behind you. The dimming
feature comes on and the indicator
light illuminates each time the
vehicle is started.
Vehicles with OnStar have three
additional control buttons located
at the bottom of the mirror. See your
dealer/retailer for more information
on the system and how to
subscribe to OnStar. See OnStar®
System on page 4-42 for more
information about the services
OnStar provides.
O (On/Off): Press to turn the
dimming feature and/or compass
display on or off.

There isn't a way to permanently disable it. So what exactly is it doing at night? Is it dimming or not?
