if you are 100 per cent sure it comes frm the pasengers side you may find that you have the rhd model where the brake pedal has a thrust rod that goes across to the lhs of the car and the brake light switch sits behind the glovebox
I found this out when i went to replace my brake light switch

Germans: Why can't they make everything?
Mine does it too!!! Its kinda annoying, and I guess if you REALLY hate it, you could wrap the switch/relay in something to quieten it... Too much work I think!! Silent indicators would be very cool too!!
Gone but NEVER forgotten. :'(
And then...
Yeah that's normal.
Remember you a driving a car originally engineered as a L/H/D vehicle with but with some controls operating 'remotely' from the opposite side when produced in a R/H/D configuration. The brake pedal for instance!
