New bulbs? Also... when you put the bulb in, or you making sure that its not wiggling in the socket?

EDIT: Also... if LED bulbs have you checked your resistor?

Looks to me like the bulbs aren't seated right. When you put in the bulb and tighten it up right... you NOT be able to move it in the socket.

personally... my friend had a similiar problem, he fixed himself... and has yet to teach me... so i'd say take it a garage unless you know how to rewire.. then you could buy a new socket for the light... although i think its just that you're not seating the bulb proplerly...
