I'm assuming that you're saying that the third light comes on quicker than the 2 main lights....

That is normal. LEDs naturally illuminate a lot quicker than halogens do. That is why a lot of luxury cars use all LEDs for their brake lights. I guess people driving behind those cars have a quicker reaction time to brake since the lights illuminate quicker.

Even with my all LED tail lights, the third brake light still does not light up at the same time as the other two.
