GM does the same thing on the full size pick-ups. Painless Wiring makes a relay kit to make all the lights be on when in the high beam mode. The part# for the relay kit is 30802, about $22.00 from Jegs. The wire color codes on the pick-ups and C-5's are the same, its a simple four wire hook up. Just bought one for my car over the weekend, have not installed yet. Thinking of mounting it inside the battery box area, and tapping into the harness in there, with the battery box cover on, you'll never know its there till you turn your high beams on.
