Dome Light Fixture Broken: Need Replacement

I recently had my headliner worked on and the dome light fixture which holds the bulb was broken in the process. Does anyone know anywhere to find a replacement? Here's a picture of what I'm talking about. Thanks.

All I can find is the housing but without the elec. guts.
I epoxied my fragile bulb holder so I would have a ceiling light.

Anybody know where to buy elec. guts or complete NEW ceiling light?

Yeah it's really weird. All I could find online is the cover and housing, but not the actual insides that hold the light.

Hey thanks for the offer. Fortunately they were able to repair it. Anybody know what the inside piece is called for future reference?

Get rid of that whole thing and install an LED. Super easy and makes a world of difference.
