Lights On, Lights Off , 1997 Explorer Sensor...

I have a 1997 Explorer, and has the autolights on feature for the headlights. At dusk they come on, and that is usually fine. But I really want to find the sensor and adjust it to have the headlights on earlier in the evening (in higher light conditions), especially during rainfall. Is anyone familiar with the sensors locations??

On my '95 Limited, you use the controls on the rearview mirror to set the sensitivity of the Autolights feature. Does your rearview mirror include a slide selector for setting the duration of the Autolights ON feature when the car is turned OFF?
