LED 3rd brake light replacement bulbs

Hey guys question. I have read on here that guys who have replaced their entire 3rd brake light with a LED 3rd brake light strip have had issues with their cruise control.

Rather than replacing my entire 3rd brake light I was looking at just replacing the 3 OEM halogen bulbs with 3 LED replacement bulbs only.

Would I be at risk of messing up my CC by doing this ?

I make these LED converted 3rd brake lights and I have never had to install any resistor for anyone. I have been running one myself for about 5 years now and my CC works flawlessly
