Has Anyone Installed A European Headlight Switch?
Has anyone in the states installed a European headlight switch in their H3? It seems you can fully turn the lights off manually and not have the auto sensor function.

By the way what does that little button do on the lower left side? I didn't see anything about it in my manual/

With my '08 OEM switch, you can manually turn the headlights off by turning all the way to the left. The middle position gives you just the running lights, and all the way right, headlights on. Yes, it returns to auto at a new startup.
The 'little button' should be for the interior lights. One way (I think out), the lights come on when a door is opened, the other way (I think out), the lights remain off.

When you want them on, start it and go. When you don't want them on, start it and turn the **** all the way to the left and let go. Been driving H3s continuously since Feb. 2007, it's not a big deal.
About as close to what you are seeking is some guy on here wired in a small dash indicator light so when the headlights were the little light was on, that way he could remember to turn them off if he didn't need them.
One of our members is in Europe and has an 07 H3, PM H3Luxembourg or perhaps he will see this and chime in?

I remember reading somewhere I believe in south Africa they have the option on their switch to turn auto on and off.

Yes, I know I can turn the **** every time I start the H3 but I shouldn't have to. Its a dumb design if you ask me. Every vehicle I've ever own which has been plenty it always gave you the option to have auto on or off.
