Yes that is crazy; do an ebay or general search for what you need. You can probably get a complete new OEM kit with switches, harness and everything for less than $160.00.
I love my Ram too - but it's no wonder Chrysler went belly-up; can't wait to see the 'FIAT POWER WAGON'.

I am not sure but if you are the DIY -type, you might want to look on LMCtruck.com for those lights, but the problem I guess would be getting just one of them. You could look at junkyards for the replacement piece though or online in other places.
Hope I helped.

How about this for stupid prices? The dealer told me $750 for an unpainted upper bumper cover. Also said they could paint it for another $150 and get this "install it" for additional $150. Over a $1000 to have a painted upper cover put on my truck. They did this with a straight face. It is indeed not a surprise they are closing.

you should be able to buy just the fog light that you need off ebay for about $40 plus shipping. I thinks thats what i saw them for when i bought mine. I bought a set w/switch for $130 shipped

When a HID bulb went out on our Mini Cooper I called the dealer. They wanted 200 for ONE bulb. I did some hunting and found a new pair on ebay (OEM) for 50 shipped. Dealers suck big time.
