Default Tail Lights

Just wondering.....one of my taillights is dimmer than the other and I'm probably going to replace the lamp. I have a '97 Z28. Does anyone know how difficult it is to do this. I've looked at it very briefly in my Hanes manual and it appears to be a big pain. Anyone have any experience with this?

Default RE: Tail Lights

Mine does that too.. Does yours have water or condensation in it? Mine did because the seal on the amber piece was messed up, so I took it off and cleaned the inside because the water had gotten it dirty on the inside. I drained all the water and let it dry and put it back on. Its still a little dim though, so I'll probably get a whole new assembly, since I don't think its the lights that are the problem. Anyway, the water that was in the taillight caused the connections on my brake light to get a little rusty and so it didnt get a good connection and I was short a brake light. I got a new light socket thing.. (lol.. not sure what its called..) and wired it back up. Its still a little dim but all my lights work, and I tried to re-seal the amber piece. It was hard to get the amber piece back in just right though, its still a little off.. I don't think there is water in it anymore, but it will last until I get a new one.
