Strange "sensor" attached to headlight

Can anyone tell me what this is? It's wired into the turn signal, kinda out of place and this thing had 6 miles when I bought it so it had to de the dealer that installed it.

WTF is that? Definitely not factory. I would take it back to the dealer and ask them.

I found another strange harness, I'll take a picture of that one, seems to be some kind of anti theft thing.

That's a little strange. Only thing I can think of is something like a Flash2Pass transmitter for a garage door opener. I've got one wired up to the high beam wire on my 2011 F-150 so that I can open the garage door by flashing the high beams. I guess it would probably work on the blinker circuit as well.
