Hi,
I notice, while changing my hi beam bulbs, another port molded into the hi beam reflector housing. It looks as though it is intended for another lamp but I can't find any listing for such.
Short of going to the dealer, I figured I'd try here.

Any ideas?

Rick

It may be for a socket for lighting for a different market, to comply with that country's lighting laws.
