It's a 7 wire switch (I believe) as the connector that comes from the column has 7 wires (4 on one connector, 3 on the other). I also believe that it is factory and is still in the column. The guy that sold it to me didn't seem to know much about it. What I do know is that I have a brown wire for tail lights, yellow for rear left turn/brake and dark green for rear right turn/brake. If I have the wiring in the front correct, it looks like blue is the front right turn signal.
