Wiring issues for high level brake light

Hi Guys,



Thought I'd have an attempt this morning at sorting out my non-working brake light. Figured it was probably 99% going to be the wiring rather than the light itself, so started inspecting the cables. I started from the boot end and soon found this;





Thinking I might have found the casue of the problem I opened it up and it seems that someone previously has crimped together 2 black wires (I believe these are earth wires) but it all looks intact;





I carried on tracing the wores back and they all seemed intact around the hinge so followed it back to where it meets the main harness and think I may have found the cause of my problem;





(Not shown in this photo is another small black wire that doesn't connect to anything anymore)



So my question is how do I go about sorting all these wires, I don't have any soldering skills or equipment so think thats out. I don't have anything to crimp them with but can easily get something if neccessary however, I wouldn't have a clue how to begin when this close to the main harness.



Does anyone think this is actually fixable by me or would I be better to get a professional to do it, or if anyone is nearby that can assist I can provide beer tokens and superficial assistance (I can make to and get sandwiches from the shop!).
