Default taillight bulbs

My passenger side taillight is very very dim...you can barely see it during the day. I replaced the bulb once already and it is still dim, does anybody know the right wattage(is that a word or did I misspell it?)?? I just went with whatever Autozone told me to use.

Could be a weak ground in the tail light assembly?

How would I check the ground? Would I be able to see it if I pulled the taillight apart?

Ive never done it, but id just take the assembly out and take it appart without breaking anything to double check the internal wiring/solder points. It may be a sealed unit so it could get messy. Maybe try replacing the fuse first even if its not blown, maybe its weak or something, i really have no clue, just guessing.

This car has been a mystery ever since we bought it! the front bumper has been coming off, all the window regulators have broken one twice in a year! we've had a weird exceleration problem, a/c problem, it seems never ending! BUT I STILL LOVE THE **** OUT OF IT BECAUSE IT LOOKS SO DAMN GOOD SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY ALL NICE AND CLEAN!! lol
