Default Question about brake light holder

Hello fellow Audi lovers ...

I am having problems with the right side brake lights. It frequently goes out ... and sometimes comes back on its own. I took the thing apart and found that a small part of the bulb holder is broken and thus the bulb loses contact at times. The dealership wants $80 to replace the holder. Do you know if things like that can be ordered anywhere online?

Another possible solution is if I just solder or attach the contact surface with the holder with some tape. Is there any risk in that? Would appreciate each of your comments ...

Soldering it would be the best solution.
