this is what GM says, but it really dosn't say if the headlights go on or not.

Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
The ambient light sensor is a light sensitive transistor that varies its voltage signal to the body control module (BCM) in response to changes to the outside (ambient) light level. When the BCM receives this signal, it will either turn ON the daytime running lamps (DRL) or the headlights if the headlamp switch is in the AUTO position. Any function or condition that turns ON the headlights will cancel the DRL operation. With the headlight switch in the AUTO position, the headlights will either be turned ON or OFF, after an approximate 30-second delay depending on whether daylight or low light conditions are sensed. The DRL illuminates the park/turn signal and DRL lamps. The DRL will operate when the ignition switch is in the ON position, the gear selector is not in the PARK position, and the parking brake is released. When these conditions have been met and the ambient light sensor indicates daytime conditions, the DRL will illuminate.
DRL operation in manual transmission equipped vehicles will occur when the ignition switch is in the ON position, and the parking brake is released

I have an 07 and I do believe that the Highs on a low wattage setup come on. I usually just turn em off though. In the middle of the day I may have my foglights and parking lights on and thats it, but that's my option. Would have been nice if I could turn on my foglights without the parking lights coming on though.
