The radio and clock sometimes resets when i brake or indicate. Also the headlight when driving at night always seem to momentarily dim. When i bought the car the previous owner had fitted a trailer electrical fittingIn New Zealand we fit these to power the trailer lights I am suspecting this could be the cause of the issue. Any Ideas how to rectify without spending big bucks?

Almost certainly a bad earth in your left hand rear light somewhere.
Clean the earths up REALLY well, ( like silver shiny metal ) and put a new end on the wire to be sure.
You can test it by grounding one end of an extra wire on a really good contact point on the chassis and getting someone to hold the other end on the common earth contact for your rear left blinker, stop light, reverse light and tail light while you try it again.
Definitely not getting a proper earth somewhere.
I have also seen a whitish corrosion on the bottom of the bulb itself, and in it's socket, cause the exact same symptoms.
If there is evidence of water in the taillight lens, go for the bulbs and their sockets first. Clean, clean, clean.
Testimonial: "Thanks for the help. Cleaned it all up and put a new wire on and it is working good as new."
have you checked at all if there are any fuses,relays or bad contacts are the cause?
