Default 3rd brake light

Hello, i hope everyone is doing well with this covid thing going on and i hope you and your families are in good health. I have a 1993 Suburban k1500 with the tailgate style rear door with window hatch but no 3rd brake light, is it possible to add a 3rd brake light where it should be? i ordered a cheap one off amazon and it came with double sided tape but there is not way its gonna hold it on the truck, i do however see two screw holes, can anyone help me out here?

You attach it with screws by drilling, you better be sure it seals against water leakage. Why would the double sided tape not hold on the rig? Hell, if you want, take the old tape off and use another double sided tape that is stronger.

My suburban NEVER had a 3rd brake light to begin with, i just wanted to add one cause it seemed out of place not to have one. The tape it came with seems like its poor quality but i like using a water proof kind and it sticks very well
