Default Tail Lights

Researching-I have a bad tail light and I'm trying to decide what to do. Does anyone know where you can buy one of these vs all four. When I bought these back in 2011 they were $525.00. Today the same lights are around $350.00. Every year upon inspection I have one light that act stupid during the procress then I get home it goes back to work. Frustrated.

Have you by chance pulled the offending taillight and checked the connection for corrosion of the terminals ?

There are often listed in the parts section for $100.00 for all 4. If not, put a WTB thread and you should get some hits. AEScorvetteparts.clm likely has some as well. I see a few on that site listed from a 2013 for approx $30.00

Yes, I have pulled light. The car is garaged kept doesn't see water much at all. I check all wiring. When you look at light very close it is very dim. Light goes back to work when it want to. Definitely electrical within the light.

Ok, well you could have avoided this question had you put all info on what you've done to diagnose the problem in your original post.
