Aftermarket for something - radar detector? What does it have fitted which isn't original?

Its a non-OEM switch fitted into a large (OEM) switch blank. What it controls will need some system tracing behind the dash.

Yep, definitely non-OEM.
Probably not even part of some after-market kit. It's a commonly available switch that you can buy from the likes of Maplin, Farnell, RS, etc. Passenger ejector seat maybe?

Hopefully not an ejector seat ...... well, not unless the Mother-in-Law is traveling!
The only thing I can think of is there is a Nokia Hands Free - Bluetooth Kit fitted?

It's likely to be for one of two things.
Either turning something on, or possibly turning something off. There, my work here is done. Sorry, no idea, but nice car choice!

It could be anything. I fitted a similar dash switch (not on my '8!) to provide a switchable supply from an "always on" supply point to a DABradio/CD/DVD/Satnav player so that it could be used when the ignition was off.

I was going to suggest that you ask the seller what it was for, but if you bought the car from Scott then he didn't even know how to turn the mirrors inwards so I don't think you'd get too far with that one. Dean
