auto dimming rear view mirror
I have 15% tint on the rear window. its difficult to see through the rear view mirror with the dimming feature. Is there any way to turn off the auto dimming feature on the rear view mirror permanently? I tried to play with it but no luck. Everytime I restart the car the dimming comes back, its just inconvenient to turn it off every time I drive at night.
Thanks in advance

I researched this for my 5% tint. Doesn't seem to be a preference Lexus can shut off permanently either.

a sensor in front (where the auto button is) and a sensor in the back of the
mirror (look for a hole off center). If the front sensor picks up more light
than the sensor in the back of the mirror, it will start to dim. I found this
by accident when putting up a front sun shade, the mirrors started to dim,
the shade blocked light from the sensor on the back side.

There are actually 2 sensors that help activate the dimming feature, there's
a sensor in front (where the auto button is) and a sensor in the back of the
mirror (look for a hole off center). If the front sensor picks up more light
than the sensor in the back of the mirror, it will start to dim. I found this
by accident when putting up a front sun shade, the mirrors started to dim,
the shade blocked light from the sensor on the back side.
