I did have two past 99's which had this item installed (vehicles purchased used).
The (NOS) packaging just lists the P/N and 'Heater/Forvarmare'.
I have only experienced possible throttle icing a few times, usually below -10 degrees, and I agree this installation is probably not needed. I was thinking that the throttle heater as well as the thermostatically controlled air intake from the exhaust side of the engine may enable quicker engine warmup on cold Minnesota mornings in the winter.
