I have seen many issues here with Headlights not coming on at dusk but is there a way to hack the system to make the headlights come on with the wipers??

It is pretty easy, actually. I have a set up in my M and love it!

There is a lever on the left hand side of the steering wheel ( a black plastic rod, if you will). At the end of that lever is a piece that twists; it has letters on it. I know that this is getting a little technical here, but if you follow these directions closely, you will do fine... try, delicately, to twist the end of the lever to a position where a word 'ON' lines up with a line on the static part of the rod. DO NOT continue to twist if you feel resistance. You will damage your car.

Voila, the lights will come on. And yes, you are welcome!

Lastly, I know that the process is extremely difficult and time consuming, but you will have to repeat it EVERY time it starts to rain.

Let me know if you'd like a few pictures to go with this. I am here to help. Good luck!

Way to go tytamto...Anyway, I think he is referring to the fact that many cars (like the 04 pontiac I used to have ) that cost several thousand dollars less than these infinitis have the feature that Automatically turns on your headlights with your winshield wipers since it is a state law in many places. This car simply just does not have it. (my 06 doesn't) THings like this (as well as automatic locks) should be standard on these mid level luxury cars.
