2nd Generation Auto-off headlight Relay Location

My '87 has an auto-off headlight switch tied to the drivers door dome light switch. The '91 I now have doesn't have the option. Is there a way to transplant the option from the '87 to the '91?

2nd Generation

That's a really handy feature on my 1990...unfortunately, it's wired so that all of the lights come on when the ignition in on...I actually can't turn either the headlamps or the running lights off, as long as the car is running. But to use the highbeams, you still have to manually turn the headlights on and if you forget to turn them off again (which is easy to forget when you almost never have to turn them on), you aren't in danger of running the battery down. Cool feature!
