Q: In a 2012 Mazda2 is it possible to add auto light control, and what parts are needed?
The 2012 Mazda2 Sport came with or without automatic light control, and as someone who forgets to turn them off I could really use this. Is it possible to convert it/add the option? I realize it would involve a sensor and a new switch, but it might be worth it if the car is pre-wired for it.
