Tiger Woods gets girlfriends who strip, I just want one metal contact strip that works. 200 1991

Both tail lights on the Brick are acting badly. One is a brake light on the right side that sets the dash warning light off although the brake light works, mostly. I believe it's a problem with the metal contact strip but can't remember how I figured it out. But the second problem, on the left side is tied to the headlights, and that's problematic because the cops in this area don't play games. It's the inner left rear tailight, closest to the license plate. The metal contact strip on that assembly is apparantly not touching the bulb housing. I tried slipping a piece of electric wire between the metal strip and the bulb housing to make the connection but blew the fuse. Any solutions, short of replacing the entire light assembly? That rear light assembly is $330 new from IPD and $88 from FPC. I replaced one before with a cheap China made job which is probably part of the problem.

Any solutions appreciated.

Thanks

Cuddy
