The only way you can completely turn off the headlights is to push in the emergency brake slightly, then start the truck and leave the emergency brake on the slightest setting, and the running lights will stay off. Obviously the brakes will be slightly engaged, but you can adjust the emergency brake so the first click doesn't engage the brakes.

You replaced the front and rear brakes of a 1990 gmc jimmy and the brakes still seem spongy?
If you brake system seems spongy, it most likely air in your brake fluid. To remove this simply jack up your Jimmy and proceed to remove the front wheels. After this has been done, and your tires have been properly removed, it is time to change your brake fluid. Buy the proper brake fluid and have a suction-pump or a friend at hand. The brake fluid cap is located under the hood. Remove this cap. If you fluid is a clear liquid, or is just turning a slight brown, then your fluid is good. If your fluid is black and groggy then it is time for a change. Proceed to pump out the brake fluid. If you do not have a pump, (which can be made homemade), then have a friend to sit behind the wheel. There should be a valve on the side of your brake system that allows you to drain your fluid. DO NOT EVER open this valve without the brake pedal being pressed. Air pockets form in your brakes and if not done properly, your brakes could fail. Making sure your buddy has the pedal pressed firmly to the floor, open the valve until the fluid looses its pressure. Tighten the valve. Pump the brakes for pressure, then hold to the floor. Repeat until the fluid is a clear color. Make sure that your brake fluid does not run out or you will have to inject it manually, which can be a pain. Having your brake fluid flushed is about $60-$100 in a shop, when you could just as easily do it yourself. Make sure the fluid is flushed when needed. If it is not properly taken care of, your brakes collect moisture which forms rust which could result in internal damage.
