    I tried searching but am still kinda new shop forgive me if this has been discussed already. Is there a way to disable the auto high beam switch? I will never use that and I agree with Toyota that it's a great place to put a switch. I prefer using my judgment for when I want them on and off and the auto is so random. Can I just unplug this switch and it will always stay off?

    I see myself possibly wanting to repurpose the BSM later also, always on, but don't want to commit to that one yet.

    Take out the switch, then plug it back in, but zip tie it behind the dashboard so you can't see it.

    It will still work as it should, but the button will be hidden.


    I'm in the same boat, I have 2 open spots in the center, but need one on the left side. I never use the auto lights anyways.
