Default Tail lights quick FLASH when unlocking, opening and closing any door (!!)

I have installed a pair of LED tail lights, and they do NOT hyperflash. However, when I unlock, open or close any door, the rear right light flashes for half a second (only the rear right). Super weird. Kinda looks like the car is letting go of some electricity through the light, or even static (why would it flash when closing a door ?). I tried another brand of LED tail lights and they do the same. I tried to reground from directly the light harness, still happens. I tried different resistors, still happens.

Anyone has an idea of why this is happening ? Thanks ! I am slightly going insane.

Same thing happens to me, I really hope someone replies with a solution or something identifying what the problem is.

Same here after i got new LED tail lights. Just the passenger side blinks when you open the door, unlock or even turn on the lights. I asked around but no one has any conclusive idea. I just live with it.
