'm having the same problem. The good news is that the whole assembly can be taken out of the car.
A plastic credit card can be used to remove the assembly from the headliner. Sharp metal tools (screwdrivers) are not a good idea because it is too easy to ding the plastic.
The metal strip that runs to the bulb can be hot glued to the assembly. Use a multimeter to check for continuity. If you want to do an overkill repair just solder some 20 gauge wire from the metal strip to the bulb socket. Make sure that there is clearance for the wire. On the DIY repair list this is a one star repair as long as you know how to solder or plug in a glue gun.
