Default X-Type Third Brake Light Issue

Hi, I have an itermittent 3rd brake light that doesn't work sometimes. If I do so much as tap on the back glass of the car, I can get the 3rd brake light to come back on so clearly it's a minor connection issue.

Therefore, does anyone have any experience removing one of these 3rd brake lights from the rear headliner area? I have pulled the headliner down slightly and see two torx screws but they are at such an angle that I can't get a torx screwdriver up in there without really bending the headliner back to far and I certainly don't want to crease it. Also, I'm not convinced that these are the only two screws holding it in and even if I did get them out the area is so tight i'm not certain I could guide them back in. Any info that anyone has on this topic is greatly appreciated!
