Default Front 'orange' driving light dull

1992 LT-1.

The drivers side front orange lamp is much dimmer than the passenger side; I have switched bulbs, and cleaned all the ground points in that area, without improving the situation. Any ideas where I can look next?

Thanks,
Andy.

Can you confirm that it's the bulb itself that's illuminating less brightly than the one on the passenger side? I'm wondering if it couldn't be either of 2 things:

1) Wrong type bulb installed, or

2) Dirty plastic lens on the left side?

Just a shot in the dark, but it would be interesting to see both bulbs illuminate while just hanging from their wiring harnesses.
