My girlfriend's '98 has the same problem, too. I was able to find a bulb that didn't have the plastic base, as her's was heating up the external bulb contact wire (likely from a corrode (thus high resistance and high heat) contact) such that it sunk into the plastice bulb base and then lost contact with the socket contact. Sounds like a recall shoud be in order. When I went to the dealer, they said I had to buy the whole harness assembly (> 100 USD), yet the sockets do in fact have a connector. Can someone please post the part number/manufacturer for the socket itself?
