I believe it does. Are you asking because you want to fit a tow bar?

Communications area network :wink:

Its a system developed by Bosch to control all the sensors and operations digitally through 2 wires :wink:

Its the most advanced system possible without using fibre optics 8)

Never had a problem with my hands free kit as it don't connect anywhere near the can bus. Depends which audio system you have if you want to use the radio mute though.

just take the live from somewhere off the bus - off the back of the 12v power outlet for instance

NO. Take the power from the 12v supply. the radio mute is just 1 connection on the back of the radio(depends on model), not the can bus.
