    don't think you can set the "sensitivity" of the headlights. they only have one setting, which is "ON"

    are you referring to dimming the lights in the instrument gauges, temp control dials, interior lights?

    this is what the menu would look like if you had autolamps. And what the headlight switch would look like. All Tacoma to my knowledge have the auto-off function so that you don't have to worry about turning them off when you shut the truck off.IMG_5627.jpgIMG_5628.jpg

    Does auto headlights refer to them automatically turning on and off with daylight and night?

    Look at his pics... he has manual climate control. He bought a base Sport.. I think they have manual lights?

    Mine came on real early, I took them down one mark.

    Are you sure you have auto headlights? Does the light stock have an "auto" mode? - see post #25.

    I asked him the same thing earlier, he did not respond to that. I don't think he has auto lights.

    OP, post a pic of your headlight stalk(the control you turn to operate your lights).

    I didnt relize yoi guys had "base" sport models. Thought it was just sport and sport upgrade/tech. Here in canada we have sport and sport premium which includes a sunroof and bsm. Both have same entune heated seats etc.
