Default Fog Light Housing Cracked....

I took my car into the dealer today to get some other work done and asked now much they would charge to fix my right front fog light that was cracked. Someone must have backed into it in a parking lot or something, not sure.

Anyway, he told me it was going to be around $340. Something like $230 for the part and $110 for labor. Does anyone know where I can buy the fog light housing instead of going through the dealer to get it? Would it be difficult to fix it myself? I'm not sure what's involved in getting at the fog light. I searched on here and it didn't look too easy to get at but all I need to do is replace the housing....

Thanks in advance for any advice...

I think you still need to find out the part # to see where you can get the part.....installation should not be that hard as it should be just a few screws......?
