Taillight Bulb Socket...CLR/RED swap out

Hey guys!


I have a 99 E320 and switched out to the 2000 clear/red tailights everything works perfect (no codes or anything) But, I was curious.....there are two bulbs on the outside lens. Should both bulbs light when applying the brake or just one?

I had to re-use the bulb sockets from the 99. But had to buy two (white) sockets for the outside. If the parking lights are on, they all light up but just the outside lights for the brake.

Do I need a double filament bulb socket or something or is it just the way it is?

Any help is appreciated? Thanks guys!
