Foglight cracked/chipped

Darnit.. what a way to go. Haven't had much good luck at all.

I was starting to change my foglight bulbs when i noticed that the glass in the left housing was chipped/cracked (e.g. there's even a hole in the middle of the chip - i could insert a straightened out paper clip and touch the bulb)

Anyone know of a way i can temporarily fix this so no water gets in? Also, how much do these things cost to replace?

Speaking of replacing the bulb - i tried taking this out but it seems stuck. So i ended up putting the OEM bulb back in the other side.

My recommendation as a temporary fix is to buy some clear silicone to close the hole. Then buy the clear, yellow or blue expel film to cut for it. It is pretty thick and should make it much less visible.
