Broken fog lamp (cover)

Can I replace just the front cover or do I have to replace the entire lamp?

Also is it easy to do or will require removal of a shit load of things. Anyone done one before?

Thanks!

I replaced one, at the same time a did the front spoiler install. Did it all myself.

I waited for a week to replace the fog lamp, so I could do both at the same time.

The hardest part of the spoiler install was unplugging the fog lamp wire connector. Not easy to do, particularly in crampled quarters (you'd have to shove your arm up behind the front spoiler, and around the wheel well liner. It's all plastic, but tough to do laying on your back.

And yes, you can't just replace the lens. I asked, but you can't just buy the lens from Acura. The fog lamp comes as a unit, without the bulb.
