Your automatic lights are also controlled by 2 relays located under the driver side of your hood inside your fuse/relay box under the label DRL (Daytime Running Lights). Youe can remove those to manually control your headlights. However, this will turn your "check vehicle soon" dash warning light on. This doesn't hurt the mechanics of your vehicle in any way at all...it's just your BCM (body control module) letting you know that there's a missing connection in the circuit. Let me know if this reply was of any use to you.

Aren't they supposed to be on all the time? My 2001 has day and night running settings that I didn't know I could change. The manual says they are on all the time...
