on the 2000-2005 Monte/Impala (Monty is a 04) have the auto on headlights and they have NO way to disable them the knob on the dash you pull out to turn them on and off in the daytime has NO AUTO mode. when you cover or uncover the sensor dome it takes about 10-30 seconds for them to go on and off. the last car I had that had auto lights was my 94 Thunderbird, it had a dial that you turned with your thumb that would turn the auto lights on or off and how long you had the interior lights stay on if you lifted the outside door handle when the car was locked. On Monty if i want to shut off the Auto lights i have to pull the fuse that disables the DRL as well. but since I live in a state that has inspections I would have to put the fuse back in before i have him re inspected. if it wasn't for the fact that that particular fuse is hard to get to, I would pull it, but as annoying as the Auto lights are, I DO like having them on my car .
