Do our cars have the CANBUS system?

Hello, I just picked up a 2010 C63, first thing I want to do is get my exterior lighting to LEDs. I found a site that mentions something about a CANBUS system which I’ve never heard. (Different bulbs for the system) so I’m not sure which to choose. Can anyone confirm we have this system so I can buy the correct bulbs? Thank you in advance!

Yes our cars have canbus systems. Get the canbus compatible bulbs so no error codes will come on.

Yes, you need canbus enabled bulbs to not trip codes or have the SAM shut off power to the socket. We carry a full line of canbus enabled LEDs and HIDs and can replace ever bulb in your 204 if interested.
