Yes, I've done that many times...It does turn the lights off,but the next time I turn the car on, the lights come on automatically again.
I guess that you can not defeat the auto turn on of the headlights.

#1 If you are going to stalk someone don't start the vehicle. It's dead giveaway someone is in the vehicle, automatic headlights or not.
#2 As mentioned earlier, get a honda something that will blend into the neighborhood you are stalking in.
#3 Can't turn on the radio either. Ambient light in the interior and all. Plus you will have to start the stalker vehicle when the battery runs low.
#4 Park further away from your stalking victim and use a longer better lens.
#5 STOP STALKING!

Make sure to have quality set of night vision goggles. I recommend Armasight PVS7-3 Alpha Gen 3

Headlights don't come on, at startup. They turn on, when the gear selector is moved out of Park (P).

Again, check your owner's manual. Or, be more specific about what you really want.

Why else would you not want your lights to turn on automatically? Can't be something legal. Poaching maybe?

You can disassemble the switch to defeat it. I don't know why you would want to in the first place though.
