I'm sorry I haven't made more progress on this but I've run into some snags. For one thing - most urgent - is the harness pins which I thought would work out for the switch gear...are not the right pin. They don't fit into the connectors. I have to keep looking.
Another issue- there's no wiring available from Europe just yet so I'm going at it blind.
Final issue - the EDM headlight switch uses all 12 pin positions in the OEM connector. The OEM, USDM switch only uses 9 pins. They are different if you look at them side-by-side. For one, the USDM defaults to the 'OFF' position while the EDM defaults to the 'auto' position. Also, the rear-fog light is a momentary switch rather than a on/off toggle like the front fog lights. That will give me issues even after I locate the connector pins.
At this point, I've browsed through Mouser and WayTek and I've emailed to BMotorsports to see if they can help identify a compatible pin. I didn't find anything and haven't heard back from BMotorsports yet. I chatted with a guy from TE for a while but didn't make progress...
