Default 1987 Honda Accord Headlight problem

I was wondering if anyone had some advice for me? I had a small accident w/ my car, crashed the passenger side headlight out. It is a flip up light. I have purchased a new one from ebay and was wondering how difficult that is to repair, ie: do i need a mechanic or could a handy friend help? Thanks for your help!

you need to be slightly more detailed. did you simplily bust the headlight assymble (the enclosed glass case) or did the cover and whole mechanism that moves up and down get crushed?

a headlight you can do yourself, i belive its 3 screws! the whole flip-up assymbly takes slightly more car knowledge but can still easliy be done.
