SmartWire Backup/Reverse Light Kit- 2016-2026 Can-Am Defender- (base kit with premium dual lights & Auxiliary kit)

SmartWire is a revolutionary plug-and-play backup light system for Can-Am designed for maximum simplicity, precision, and reliability. Unlike traditional aftermarket lighting systems that require splicing wires, drilling switches, and complex installation, our system connects directly into the vehicle’s diagnostic CAN port. This innovative design allows the controller to automatically read ECU signals and turn on the reverse lights the moment the vehicle is shifted into reverse—no extra steps, no manual switches, no hassle.

Dual light light kit – Includes plug and play harness, mounts, control box and lights.
