So today, I just replaced that center console compartment in my car amidst other things I've replaced; Front Drivers Seat, bad seat heater, had to swap the air bag too, thats a sucky job! Front Door Checkers, both sides. Inlet O ring on the power steering pump, Front Breaks, 4 bubbling door handles, etc,etc.

Anyways, I bought it used for a good price because it had low miles and it was in outstanding condition mechanically and physically, just needed a some misc things replaced.

Thats aside the point, Today for fun I pulled up that piece that has the two vents on it above the stereo and I noticed the wiring connected to what I thought was the photo sensor for maybe what could be auto headlights? When I drove Malibu's and Corolla's they had an auto feature where at night they would automatically turn on. I have not seen such an option on my car, but the wiring is there. So is there something that I'm missing?, or do I need to add it?

I searched through some threads and found the most helpful information in the "Nice Suprises" thread, as well the auto window roll down feature, thats cool. I couldn't however find any information pertaining to what I was looking for.

Any ideas?

It's a sunlight sensor. It's not used for auto-on headlights though. It's used for the AC system in conjuction with the temperature sensor residing behind the small grill next to the steering column behind the wiper controls.

Oh cool! Thanks!
