Use external monitor automatically, when started in Docking Station

I am using a Thinkpad T510 and I often boot it in a ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 (EU). The problem is that if I boot it with the lid closed, I can see grub, I can see the Ubuntu boot splash, but after that my external monitor (connected via VGA) turns off, and I have to open the lid and tell the NVIDIA driver manually to use the external screen and turn off the built in LCD panel. Is there a way to put it into an udev rule, or something like that to avoid the manual switching?
