Unhappy Instant on head lamps

Ok guys, I am kinda dissapointed in Ford. I owned a 97 ford Lariat xcab and recently traded it in on a 2001 supercrew. There are two features that the XCab had that I want on my supercrew.

1. At night the headlamps (headlights) automatically come on.
2. A switch to turn the passenger side air bag off.

The air bag thing is not that big of a deal, but I got used to not having to turn the headlights on and off.

So, The question is, What do I need to do to add this to my truck?

I am sure someone can help me out on this.


Thanks in advance!

Stephen

Question

For some reason Ford only sees fit to offer the AutoLamp feature (turns the headlights on and off automaticaly) on the Lariat models. I believe it is optional on the XLT. If you have the sensor in the top of the dash it's probably just a module to add, if you do not have the sensor it may involve removing the dash to install the sensor under it. I think it is in the center of the dash near the windshield.

The airbag switch is there because children cannot sit behind an airbag, so they installed the switch, with a s'crew you have a full back seat and doors, so there is no need for the switch.
