Anyone know where I'd find the dim-dip relay?

I've currently got 2 E30's - a 1988 standard 325i and a 1989 325i SE, the older one has dim-dip (headlights come on dim when the sidelights are on), but the newer one hasn't. I'm going to be selling the older one when I've got it sorted out, but I want dim-dip on my new car. I can't find the dim-dip relay anywhere on the old car unless it's hidden away above the glovebox or somewhere...

Its at the front of the right side of the car (if facing the car) it looks like two white cylinders in a bracket. behind the grill next to the low beam headlamp, its bolted to the chais of the car.

Im not sure if you can add this to your new car.
