I would imagine your sidelights will go through a relay and it seems thats just got a bit lazy, hence the flickering. Quite rare for it to be the switch itself but possible.

The TNS on the FD is the middle fuse (fourth from the left or right) in the long fuse box at the font of the car near the bonnet catch.
