How do I add automatic nite headlights?

I have a 2003 F-150 5.4L XLT 4x2 SuperCab Sport truck.

Is there a kit, that can add the ability to have the head lights turned on automatically at night, and off during the day. So that one NEVER has to touch the head light switch.

Hi Ron and welcome to FTE

I've read that the parts needed to install the factory autolamps just plug in.

Apparently you would need only 3 things.....1)Switch-- P/N#13A018
2)Cover on dash (Oval)--P/N# XL3Z-15046A34-DAA (specify your color)
3)Sensor-- P/N#YL3Z-13A018-AA

I'm getting this info secondhand so I can't be sure it's right but maybe someone has tried it and can tell us whether or not that works.

Well thanks for the welcome, and I certainly appreciate the help. It is a start, and we shall give it time, to see what comes about.

If you try it let us know how it goes

One hint too....you can edit your posts for up to an hour (I believe) rather than adding new posts. It just helps to save some bandwidth on here.
