Question Disable headlight reminder

Looking for a way to disable the headlight reminder warning on a 3rd gen (1999) sedan.

I installed an automatic headlight system and one of the things it does is leave your lights on for 30 secs after the ignition is off. I don't want the headlight reminder going off when I open the door to get out.

It's actually the parking lights that trigger the reminder (makes sense, since you normally cannot have the headlights on without the parking lights on first).

Install it like any other car electronics (alarm, etc.) - find the right wires (using a chart) and connect to them.

I bought mine at a local car stereo shop.

Mine is a Nightvision made by Clifford (before they were bought by DEI) and is not made anymore. DEI makes the 545T Nite Lite which is the equivalent unit.

MSRP for the DEI part is $60USD. I bought the older Nightvision for $30CDN.

I sorted out the buzzer for now. I cut a trace on the back of the gauge cluster and soldered two wires to it and fed them down under the dash. For now I have disabled all buzzers (key, lights) and if I decide to get fancy later I have the wires to restore the buzzer (just connect them together).
