For the lights flickering - I had the same problem. The instructment panel lights (speedo, tach, etc.) and headlights flickered as I drove. Then they had a hard time coming on, I had to switch on and off several times before they would come on. Now the they're all off.

The problem is a burnt wire in the connection at the back of the headlight switch. There's a recall that may fix this, 99mos3 I think. However, it's only covered for 7 years/70000 miles. Mines is at 81K+, so the estimate for the recall is $390 at a Ford dealership. I'm trying to get the part number to have a local mechanic change it out.
