Default NEWBIE HERE. HELP? Headlight bulb replacement

So I have a 2014 IS 250. Just recently the driver side headlight started dimming to an orange color. It finally went out. Sorta. After a few days, when it came back on at night it was dim again for a while and then went out again but this time quicker. I called the dealer to find out how much it will cost to replace the bulb and they said $350. Um no. So, I've been trying to look online for videos on how to replace the bulb as I am not unaccustomed to working on cars myself (I had an Audi that gave me hell so no choice), but can't seem to find much of anything on replacing the bulb for this model and this year. I almost feel like with only 60,000 miles on this car it's almost too early for a headlight to go out. Am I wrong?
