She can also switch the lights on with the remote when nearing the car at night - very useful (and with xenons the battery drain is not even that bad)
I had a C4 VTS before my Civic and loved the fact that I could leave the lights in auto mode. They never came on (if required) until after the car was started and would come on 30 seconds or so if the wipers activated automatically.
