Default winking headlight

I know weird, but back in the day if you had a VW Bug, there was a kit to rewire your headlights to turn off and on one headlight, when seeing another bug. (or wink) Is it possible to rewire a headlight motor to open close when seeing another vette? or am I

You could probably wire a rocker switch into the wiring for just one headlight if you have a service manual and know how to read a wiring diagram (I seriously doubt if there are plug and play kits available).

It's your car and if it turns you on go for it... No way in he!! I'd do it to mine. I wouldn't post it up on here if you do decide to do it, you'll probably get flamed if you do...
