I had a 96 grand am that all of a sudden lost it's break lights. It was a small plastic nut that held the switch the break pedal pushes to engage the lights. I think it cost like $2.00.

I'm retarded when it comes to repairing vehicles and I was able to figure it out just by looking around behind the break pedal. Hope this helps.
