    3 flats in a row? (same wheel)

    LIGHTS!

    Hi All, my front lights work fine (bar an indicator which just needs a new bulb) but my rear lights are a different story... The brake lights are constantly on, but the bulb holders are loose and i think i'll need to replace them as they individually flicker all over the place when driving...
