So even if the part is off RHD car from UK, it is still plug and play for US LHD cars? Does it matter if it is F10 or F01?

If you are part of a convoy or car group, only the last member in the back should be operating it.

be safe!
I also use it for tailgaters. They think I'm braking and back-off.

Yes. it still works. The car doesn't care where the switch is as long as it is driver accessible.
