My left high beam messed with a fat a** rock and is now all craked up... Should I replace the lens with the one I could get from a friend or is it too risky/tricky? Should I buy another complete lamp instead (would 60 bucks shipped be a realistic price)?

Thanks for your help!

If you have the extra cash you might be better off to just buy the lense, i've seen them as cheap as I think 25 bucks plus shipping in the for sale section.
It will save you the work of havin to replace the lense, and there is always the risk that it won't seal properly.
