i recently replaced the taillights on my 1997 with the lights from a 1999 to get a newer look and used the same bulbs that were in the 1997 lights, but i noticed that my third brake light (the one behind the rear glass) stays on while im driving and only gets brighter when i apply the brakes. I think the rear lights are fine but i dont know, the lights stay on and get brighter when I brake, similar to the third brake light in this case. Im not sure if theres anything wrong with the rear brake lights but I know theres definitely something wrong with the third brake light. what should i do?

that was a ridiculously quick and easy fix so im gonna leave this here in case anyone else makes the same mistake. All i did was remove the bulb holders and all the bulbs, check how many prongs each bulb had and how many prongs were in the socket. Turns out i accidentally put a 2 prong bulb in a 1 prong socket and a 1 prong bulb in a 2 prong socket. After I switched those it worked perfectly.
