NOVAX5 is on a distinguished road
When they say the whole assembly was burn they meant socket holding the bulb burns a hole the housing at the contact point. So there is no contact between the housing and the socket. Easy fix with lead and soldering gun to fill the gap and spread the lead even at the contact point (you will see it as soon as you look at the housing) 10 bucks to fix. soldering gun is $7 and lead is $3. Worst case senario buy clear tail lights on ebay and fit it right in. You must not always take it to dealer for small issue. They will rob you like they did to me the one and only time i brought mine in for regulator repair $460. After that i did all small problems myself or have a good BMW mechanic do bigger job. NOT DEALER.
