replacing a headlight assembly

How easy is it to replace the entire headlight assembly on a 2009 tt? Any manuals available?

One of the tabs broke on the assembly and now the entire headlight moves slightly.

The body shop wants to charge me $800 plus labor for the part, but I am seeing quite a few on ebay from between $200 to $500 for the same part.

If it is a simple process (I know the alignment part requires more equipment) I was going to try it myself, minus the light alignment.
