auto headlights

Is there any way to retrofit automatic headlights into a 2000 ml430. It doesnt have to be a factory retro, just anything that will turn off the headlights when i lock the car

RE: auto headlights

Would be almost impossible. 02 was the first year I believe for auto headlights. Quite frankly I have them but do not use them very often.

RE: auto headlights

you just want them to turn off on exit? easy, just ground it to another source.

i have it on my 99 ml430 also have turn at dusk and on when wipers are on, and got express up and down on all of my windows including sunroof and it all operable from remote too i mean i can turn on/off headlites; open/close windows, sunroof; lock/unlock the doors. it clifford iq-900 or 9000 i don't remember which one since i had like 4 of them in a period of 4 years, also i had remote start since i got the truck. the alarm itself is expensive but installation cost me like twice of that because no one had a remote start at that time for ml and had problems during the install went thru 2 transponders and about 4 keys. but they had figured it out eventialy so for 5 and half years it's been trouble free.
