My first guess on electrical strangeness on these cars is usually a ground or a weak connection. Of course FINDING a bad ground can be quite the challenge! And weak connections can be frustrating.
My thought would be a ground/connection either at the high mount light OR at one of the rear brake lights. It's all one circuit so you may be looking in the wrong place.
But since you've put in LEDs there's a difference in the resistance in that circuit. As I recall, others here --going back a coupla years-- have done LEDs and had pictogram issues, and I don't remember any clean and simple resolution.
Last time I opened up my high mount light it was pretty gnarly in there. I cleaned it up and put a skim of dielectric grease on some connections. No issues, but I didn't really have any to start with, was just replacing a coupla bulbs.
