Default How to disable headlights auto-on?

I want to disable the headlights auto-on feature when unlocking/entering the car. I've just ordered new headlight bulbs (at enormous expense!) and it occurs to me that this feature needlessly consumes battery power and puts extra wear on the bulbs even though they're only on briefly. I've looked through EVIC but can't find any reference. Anyone know if it's possible?
Thanks in advance...

Yes you can do this in the Uconnect screen under 'settings' from memory.

Thanks guys, finally found it. Called 'Illuminated Entry' in EVIC Settings on the small screen (vehicle info etc).
