LED lamps: CAN Bus vs Regular?

LED lamps: CAN Bus vs Regular?
I'm about to replace all the interior lamps in my Fit. My LED vendor has "CAN Bus" lamps and the same thing but without the CAN Bus. But they don't recommend one over the other for the 2016 Fit.
Which do I need?
(I realize this is a pretty dumb question...)

It's NOT a dumb question.
Some vehicle's CAN BUS systems rely on specific resistances to work as designed, so changing to the lower resistance LEDs will cause erratic operation.
If the answer isn't forthcoming (have you asked more than vendor, specifically?), I'd order the CAN BUS lamps to be safe.
I don't know the answer, myself.

GK5 lamps are not CANBUS type. And LEDs are high resistance and they draw little current. If it were a CANBUS light system thosr Lights have internal resistors to present a load to the socket so the idiot dash light saying the bulb is burnt out stay off.
