looks like I'm going to have to take crap apart today in 30 degree weather, anyone w/ similar experience and solution? TIA

the lights to work intermittently or not at all. You have to dig in the trunk and take apart part of it to replace them. I think there's a write-up I followed in the Tech Article section.

it was a major pain when i first replaced light and it flickered.

3rd, took all the corrotion off the contacts and the lights were getting full voltage again

The issue turned out to be that the contacts were no longer "making contact". So what I did was clean the contacts of any corrosion I could see, and then I had to bend the contact prongs so that when I replaced the bulb fixture the prongs would make nice solid contact.

I also went to the length of testing all of the wiring, etc with a multimeter prior to doing this.

Hope this solution works for you.

Had the same problem replaced license plate bulbs assemblies. Got them off ecs tuning for $12 each

my pass side one does that, the bulbs I bought at AZ don't fit quite right, but need new housing too
