For those of you who asked, since its an OEM part, it does not void your warranty.

Japan has it.

Were you able to get it wired up and working? If so I'll take it assuming not too many extras are needed

Yeah it actually came off working just fine, parted the car out. no extras needed whatsoever, you just run the wires through the plug hole then clip them onto the control wires in the column and screw on the ground.

Pm me if you want it.

Is this a feature for halogen or hid lights?
If it's for halogen lights I'm very interested!

I have quite a few projects to do on the 8 with a deadline that keeps racing closer, but when I get this thing I'll post up pics for sure. I'm gonna deactivate my DRL's (canadian car), and do the fog light as DRL mod. Looking forward to it.
