My 91 comes on full brightness when I open the drivers door with the round key, when I open the door, and I turn on the interior lights with the dimmer switch.
it does not come on when I pop the rear glass
It will not come on if it’s sunny outside
not sure why yours is coming on dim at times.

I'm gonna be under the car tomorrow anyway changing the oil and screwing around with the shifter linkage, so I might change out that socket and bulb and see if it resolves it. Actually, I definitely will. May as well, since I have the new socket.

That courtesy relay does click randomly open and closed once in a while, though. Which of course sets off the courtesy lights. I have the replacement relay, Just haven't messed around with it. At first I thought it was the door switches causing it, but that wasn't it. They needed replaced anyway.
Ah well. I'll figure it out. I'm glad I found the thread, though. It'll give me something else to tinker around with.
That could be it.

Not to take away from op's original question, but I repaced the bulb. No change. Replaced the socket. No change.
I'll swap out that relay whenever I get around to it and see if that sets it straight.
