There are some well known issues with the electrical traces in these lights. Removing the light housing is easy through the trunk. Take out the light bulb that is going dim and inspect the contacts of the bulb holder and the contact points on the electrical traces of the light housing. You will probably see some black racing marks and could even see melted traces. This has been documented on here before.
