+### Note: disabled headlight range control
+
+Some cars have headlight range control. Basically, if you're car is carrying a heavy load, the main headlights can be adjust to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic. That's a nice feature to have.
+
+However, this car came installed with after-market headlight units. They look nice, but lack the motor for headlight range control. 
+
+Now, _if_ you offer your car for inspection, and there's a headlight range control, it's expected to work. If it is there, but does not work, means your car will fail inspection. So, if you install headlights without range control (which is fine), then the button should also be disabled. It's just, the way it has been disabled is not so nice. They could have just removed the wheel control. I think I'm going to look for an scrap light control unit that only has the instrument lighting wheel and not the headlight range control. That will look way nicer.
