Turning off headlights in NFS: Rivals

Hey EA, I love your new NFS game, and I am here to request you add one tiny feature that I think could make a huge difference in simple enjoyment. I am requesting that you allow players to turn off the headlights during nighttime driving. Both "Hot Pursuit" and "Most Wanted" featured this ability and I think "Rivals" would benefit from this as well. The game is beautiful, and I (As well as many others) personally enjoy driving in the first person car view, but during the night cycle, the headlights become obnoxiously bright and distracting, making the scenery look very ugly to me. It would be greatly appreciated if you considered adding the ability to turn off headlights in your next update or however it may be done. Thanks for your time.

    I don't think you could turn off the headlights in most wanted 2012 or hot pursuit 2010.

    You could definitely turn off your headlights in Hot Pursuit (2010)

    I have to admit, i can't remember off the top of my head, if you could turn off the headlights in Most Wanted while driving, but you could definitely turn off the car engine.

    I encountered a workaround glitch for this.
    You need a buddy's help and you can "turn off" your headlights. Sadly it
    Permanantly disables your tail lights and police lights (if cop).

    But get a friend and have them emp/stun mine your car right before you go into a repair shop. In such a way that you enter the shop where your lights are off.

    This glitched mine and turned them permanantly off in my police patrol Mclaren F1.
    Found it while accident during a persuit.
    Thought you might like it!

    You cant turn them back on without going into a hideout/command post,
    Repair shops dont turn them back.

    But if you drive in 1st person, it shouldnt bother you!

    I remember being able to turn off the headlights in Hot Pursuit and I liked it. I think it is more important in this game than ever before with the All Drive and Open World Environment as there is a lot of hiding and sneaking around. Racers want to get away by turning their lights off, and cops want to hide to snag someone. Seems like an easy update they could make that would make it even more realistic!
