If the above has worked good news but I had this prob on my 1998 318is. It turned out to be the connectors on the plate which the lights attach to. Try just pushing in the little (hard to explain) connector bits what the bulb is pushed and turned to connect into. Basically to make a tight fit. I hope it works for you.
