Is it possible to replace rear light led module?

The rear inner tail LED light doesn't work anymore and I read somewhere that not the LED but the module itself probably burnt out.

I also read that it's next to impossible to replace the module and I have to replace the whole thing?

Can you guys tell me what I should do? I have a car inspection next week so I need to fix this asap.

I can't find any second hand ones in my country either

The module cannot be pulled out just like that. LEDs are installed on the module board. Rots anywhere. And LEDs rot too

To remove the module, you need to cut the tail light housing.
