Default Is there a way to turn off the headlights?

When I am parking at night I don't like my lights on (shines in my neighbors windows), but there seems to be no way to turn them off on the Gen 1 Prius.

Is there a trick, or do I need to map the circuits and install a physical switch?

I agree, this would be really nice. But as far as I know, the only thing you can do is put the parking brake on. Then when you start the car, the headlights won't be on until you release the parking brake...
(Short of installing a new relay/switch...)
