Is it possible

I was wondering if there is a way to skip the automatic setting on the headlights so my HID's dont have to turn on twice when i turn my lights on?

Huh? if your headlights are set to auto, they will come on at ngiht, and you won't have to switch it to headlights...

yeah, ryan is right, im not sure what you mean tho. you can just use it like regular headlights, and never bother with the auto setting

I think he means that when they're on the off setting, and you want to turn on your headlights, he thinks you have to go to auto, then parking, then headlights.. WHen all you have to do is go to auto. And if they don't go on in auto because they'res too much light, but you want em on anyway, then you can go to the regular headlight setting, in whoch case the HIDs will not turn on twice...

Well if you headlights are turning on when you turn them to "auto" from "off" on your way to "on" then just leave them on auto as if they were "on" and then shut them off when you get out.

The only problem with the auto is that during dusk conditions, my headlights will turn on and turn off intermittently until it's sufficiently dark. Annoying and bad for the bulbs.
