Fog Light Bracket Broken

Fog Light Bracket Broken
I was cleaning my car a bit today and I noticed that my right fog light was not as securely attached to the bumper as the left. I took off my bumper to discover that the plastic bracket that attaches the fog light to the bumper is broken. Does anyone know where I can replace just the bracket? It's just a piece of plastic that shouldn't cost too much (<$50, I hope) compared to the $200-400 price of replacing the whole fog light.

I don't know if I should create another thread for this, but I went to the dealer to get an oil change and I asked em about the fog light anyways. They said it wasn't covered under warranty and that I would have to pay for the part myself. I checked their parts store and the damn thing is freakin ~$164 before taxes. I also checked ebay and the cheapest used passenger side fog light is $90 after shipping. Do you guys think I could find it cheaper at a junkyard (I dunno how many TSX's have been wrecked because I see so few out there right now anyways)? If anyone in the Los Angeles area has any advice regarding which junk yards I can contact for a part, it would be greatly appreciated.

you can break the foglight glass, buy some lexan plexiglass from home depot and cut it out and use it as a replacement. it'll cost you $15 or so including marine silicone glue to seal it up. another $20 if you buy a dremel
i saw this from a 1G TSX DIY

I recommend protecting those fog lights with protective film such as Lamix-X (http://www.lamin-x.com/).

Try getting the dealer to do a warranty replacement. I stopped by 2 dealerships and they said warranty doesn't cover incidental damage, but you might get lucky like a few others have on this forum.

UPDATE: I just bought the whole right OEM fog light for $80, free shipping, as a best offer. The dude had it for $100, and I thought my $80 would be kinda a lowball considering all the other fog lights were over $100 for aftermarket lights. OEMs were around $120. Good luck with what you decide to do 2010tsxwpp.
