well to begin, just pull out the headlamp control switch and cut the brown wire, i used a swiss army knife because i couldnt fit snippers around the other wire.

step 2- now just turn your lights on and they will pop up all the way, turn off the lights and they will stay up (good job u cut the brown wire)

step 3-just quickly press the headlamp control button in and out until desired position is reached.

step 4, in your acessory fuse box (drivers side kick box) and pull the 5a fuse on the right side labled *light control*

conlusion- after pulling the fuse you can now turn your healights ON and still have them sleepy witch is much easier than buying a switch and wire tucking from the fuse box to the switch

p.s next time you want your healights all the way up again pop the 5a fuse back in and they are back in perfect working order

Okay, question. What happens if I don't pull the light control fuse? Could I then use the light button for flipping the lights up and down? And the switch to turn the light on and off? Or will the headlights just keep popping back up when turned on?

sorry to tell ya, but first you spelled "easiest" wrong in the title (assuming that easiest was the word you were going for)second there has been a number of write ups on sleepy eyes, yours however contains no new information, maybe you should use the search button before posting something thats already been posted, idk.

I appreciate the post. Even though it's all over the internet. Someone may find YOUR post first. Or your post may show up in a search that only returns a few results.

Forget the haters! If information only existed in one place it would be very hard to get a hold of or to spread.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm not gonna be pulling out and replacing a fuse everytime I either want sleepy eyes or wide awake eyes. It would be way easier to wire in a small switch in line on the fuse so you don't have to remove it, only flip the switch removing the fuse circuit from the headlight circuit. bam! Now it's the "easiest". But like said, REPOST!!!!!!

try searching. It's the icon on the top of every page that sais "SEARCH" and it has a magnifying glass on it with the nissan symbal in the glass. Yet another sleepy-eye write up to add to the pile....

Is there a wire coming off the headlight switch STALK that you can cut to make the lights not pop up?

Is that the brown wire?

well, for your information, when you do start to loose visibility with your lit sleepy eyes( with the fuse out) just switch too your brights and they pop right up and will stay up if u switch back to low beams, and when u want them sleepy again put the fuse back, tap the headlight control switch in and out rapidly till they are where want em, pull the fuse out again and dont turn on the brights, and as for the wire being in the light signal stalk, thats not it, the brown wire is behind the headlight control button witch needs to be pulled out (carefully

So there is no wire coming from the stalk that controls the movement of the headlight bucket? Seems like there would be...
