Nope, no 'hyper flash' or anything.

The LED ones are still good, I check by swapping the left/right with each other and they both light up on the left side. Right side both don't turn on.

As for the dimming, figure the rear light was starting to go, but then I turned everything on again to check, and the side marker light on the right is also very dim now too...something is definitely up.

Still can't figure out which fuse to check, most I got was tail light fuse from inside car. It's 10A and looked good. Will swap with another 10A and see if anything changes, but don't think it's the right fuse to be checking...

Thanks again, and if anyone knows of a solution let me know.
I suggest you check the fuses in positions #s 4 & 6 in the fuse panel under the dash.

My money is on that you have a poor ground somewhere in that circuit. I suggest you take a wire and run from the negative side of the housing for the bulb and run it to a known ground ...... to see if the bulb brightens up.

PS - Bubba says to pound on the tail light housing and yank on wires .......
