Default Exactly what are you trying to accomplish?

If you mean have them on automatically, just turn the dial to AUTO.

Default I think he mean that when in the auto position, to be able to put a delay when it detects it's

dark outside or sunny outside. I would gladly make the change if it's possible...

For example, i'm in the auto mode: If I am in the garage and open the door, the lights go on as soon as I put the key in the ignition... I have a "special" system that when the garage door opens it lights up the whole garage, the lights go instantly off... I then reverse to leave for work near 6:00am and it's dark outside, they go back on instantly.... On my 02 and 03 Z06, the lights had a customizable delay from 12 to 60 seconds wich was very well thinked.

Default I'm sure it's a VAG setting, I've also been looking for something like that.

I imagine there is a delay time or even a sensitivity setting. I noticed that my auto lights if I'm driving in the dusk and the lights are off, they may sometimes turn on underneath an underpass, then turn off again when I emerge. It's kind of a pain, it's almost like I'm flashing my lights at the car in front of me. I'd like to be able to adjust the delay higher or something.
