United-Kingdom Crack in pillar, advice needed please :)

Hi guys, I've got a crack in my plastic window pillar (not entirely sure what they're really called, the black plastic bits either side of the windscreen!!)
Does anybody know where i can purchase a new one and how they are fixed on, or should i go to a dealer? (presuming i won't get charged more than my life is worth!)

Thanks in advance for your help,
Jamie.
