Tailgate lights malfunction

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Another issue with my vintage 2013 p85+.

Looking for advice where to start looking for the error. Both tailgate lights acting up. Sometimes left is on, sometimes other way around. Opening the hatch more than 5-6 inches turns the tailgate light off. Pretty sure it could be a wiring issue. Trying to wiggle the tube with wires going from hatch to car body sometimes make the lights flicker. Fuses are ok. Could wires be damaged from opening the hatch a thousand times for the past decade? Where are the lights wires connected, under the headliner somewhere?

Any advice appreciated, thank you.
