"ProductSearch element works only with msi package," is true of the
wix:ProductSearch (which can only be used in a msi context).  However in
another thread to answer your question John suggested that you look at
util:ProductSearch (which is a Bundle related WixExtension). 

I have not needed any of this when including a Burn bundle in a Burn bundle. 
As others have responded, look at the RelatedBundle support already in Burn. 

With regard to finding a Bundle from a non-wix application I have previously
detailed for you the approach that my legacy setup uses to to find a child
bundle (which relies on defining Bundle/@dep: ProviderKey, getting the
BundleId in the mba, and passing it to a chained MSI for storage in a known
location in the registry).  Also in other threads on this issue Jacob has
provided another approach related to using dutil functions.

I don't think that your current line of thinking, trying to"extend" a MSI
ProductSearch CA to work in Burn, is even possible.
