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.

Important: Lights are not included with this kit. This product includes the SmartWire controller and wiring harness only.

Been running the smartwire backup/reverse light kit for 2016 to current can-am defender - (base kit with no light) on my UTV for a few weeks now. Did exactly what I needed it to do. Install was easier than I expected. Worth the money.
