Driver Side Window Switch broke. Help!

I was rolling up my windows one night and the switch for the driver side popped off and seemed to be broken for good. What do I do? Do I buy a new switch from the dealer and see if I can install it? Or do I waste a lot of money for the dealer to fix it themselves?

It's pretty easy to fix dude...
Shouldn't take any longer than 10mins...
I just replaced my drivers side one...
I'm sure you can find one in the buy/sell forum to.
The dealer probably wants an arm and a leg for that switch.

I have a question that ties to this in a way, sorry for hijacking. Is there a way to turn your window switch or switches into 1 touch down buttons? What causes it to do this? Is there a relay or something that controls this?
