Hi,
Is it possible to get the headlights to light up when you press open on the car key?
Thanks,
Aage

No way to illuminate the lights from the key but if you're looking for a "follow me home" type of functionality, just pull back on the turn signal stalk as you are getting out of the car. This will illuminate the headlights for a short time to help light your path as you walk away from your car...
