He added it himself (read the title).
Brown wire is the dimmer wire I belive, so when you turn your headllights on its dims down, like the headlights do. |

Yo twirqurky where does it say he added his trip computer himself the title has nothing to do with him adding a trip computer.
An i am sure that my headlights are not meant to dim only from hight beam to low. not with the dimmer switch but thankyou i know what you mean.  )) |

If it came stock, then why is he adding it?
If it came stock, why does he need help?
It doesnt explicitly say jhe is adding tit, I interpretted it as he had.
When you turn your headlights on, the clock/trip computer and your odo reading dim to make it easer on the eyes in the darkness. |
