Default LED bulb switch

I'm going to have to take my wheel well guard off to replace my parking lamps and want to know what other bulbs can be replaced at the same time as long as I'm in there. Also, which bulbs HAVE to only be reached through there?

Yes only through the fender liner. And no there is no other work you can do for lights. You can also replace your Back Up lights into LED's. I also replaced my fog lights with white halogens (vs the old traditional yellow ones).

I disagree. If going through the wheel well, you can do fogs, side marker lamp, and parking lamp all at same time. I did. Turn signal and high beam can be done from the hood.

Do any of these bulbs require a CAN bus mod? Are they all plug and play?

If going LED fogs you need a canbus, also If you change your daytime-high beams. I'm in the process of doing all & will remove the front bumper as well to get at EVERYTHING at once. I recommend going to or talking with someone at iJDMtoy.com.....VERY helpful and know their stuff.

What year is your SC? I don't think the early models have a CAN bus. I'm thinking it came sometime after '06...
