I had a small accident and one of my tail light is broken. Where can I change and how much will it cost approx? Is it easy to change it by myself or better go to body work shop?
Where can I have my 2006 Honda Civic Sedan tail light changed in Melbourne?

there are a few steps to follow to replace it and you will need a few tools to do it
youtube is your friend
"Civic 2006 tail light assembly"if your not the "handy", ask a friend who is
otherwise mechanic it is
It probably requires just a phillips head (cross) screw driver and maybe a bit of tape plus the right part.
Try Repco, Super Cheap Auto (do they stock model specific parts? I only ever use them for generic stuff like bulbs/plugs/filters) or the local wreckers (see yellow pages).
If you go to the wreckers (who buy crashed cars to strip for parts) they will likely let you watch them take the part out of the old car if you ask, or there are also wreckers that let you go strip the parts yourself.
Worst case, call a few Honda dealers asking for a quote. They will do it in under an hour if you ask for that and book ahead, and while I would expect it to cost approx $300+ (versus about $100ish otherwise) it will be easy.Super easy job on an old honda. Get the tail light from a honda wrecker. I used to go to hondwreck/hondworld, I think they're in Clayton now. About $100 for the light, fit it yourself.
Or try the fanboys on ozhonda.com and see if someone is selling theirs.
super cheap auto?
