Turn the headlights off before spraying to temporarily disable them.

I disconnected mine and used the hose for IntercoolerSprayers, but unplugging them should work fine.

Default I agree, but they are great in the winter when you have salt all over your car anyway. Just do what

I do, turn off the lights at a stop light and wash the windshield, then turn them on again. PITA I know, but they are great when you need them so I wouldn't disable them.
