You are probaby going to need a new master cylinder. They're a tad bit expensive, but MUCH less than bent sheetmetal or broken human bits if the brakes decide to fail.
Before you do anything though, I really recommend the installation of "Speed Bleeders" at each wheel - http://www.speedbleeder.com/ - to make the bleeding job easier. I phoned them up and they knew exactly what I needed. I ordered five bleeders (one for the clutch slave cylinder as well) along with their bag and tubing kit to catch the old fluid. This entire project ended up taking only an afternoon to completely replace both the master cylinders, blow out the lines, put the stainless steel braided lines on at each wheel, install the speed bleeders and refill with DOT5 (silicon based) brake fluid. I ran an entire large bottle of DOT5 through in order to make sure I had removed all the old fluid, then filled it up with a fresh smaller bottle. I did have to bleed my brakes a few more times over the summer last year - I think to get rid of any residual air bubbles or moisture. My brakes feel great now. As someone else said - the map light is supposed to shut itself off when returned to horizontal position, but they wear out. I use a cheap metal "broomstick holder" that holds mine up in place, but had to use electrical tape to wrap it as I think it grounded the map light and made the light stay on. Good luck!
