Default 2016 Accord Touring Coupe front LEDs out

Just discovered the LED lights are out on the front right side - daytime lights. I also just learned this has been an issue with the LED strips.

Before I spend an arm & a leg what would is the best way to replace these DIY or take it somewhere? I heard of dealers charging astronomical prices so want to do this as economical as possible. Also can the LED strip be replaced and does it need to be an authentic Honda part?

Thanks for an help you can send me way! Appreciate it!

There was a DRL LEDs warranty extension to 10 years with unlimited mileage from the original date of purchase. The whole headlight is replaced. Your Touring model with LED headlights and DRL LEDs is even more expensive than other trim levels.

I've already had both headlights replaced under the extended warranty. Yes, if you want Honda to cover it, bring it to a dealership.
