CSS: Styling range input?

Question

I'm trying to style a range input to look like THIS

I have no idea how to style a range input to use own image as the thumb and make the line under the thumb thicker and bigger.

I did put a very basic example in this FIDDLE

Is it even possible to use own image for the range thumb and how would i go about making the line thicker and longer etc?

This is my CSS:

input[type=range] {
    -webkit-appearance: none;
    background-color: blue;
    width: 200px;
    height:20px;

}

input[type="range"]::-webkit-slider-thumb {
     -webkit-appearance: none;
    background-color: #666;
    opacity: 0.5;
    width: 10px;
    height: 26px;
    background-image:url('THUMB-ICON.png');
}

Any advise would be appreciated.

Getting somewhere I think: https://jsfiddle.net/BNm8j/5586/

Edit:

I made some changes to this but I don't know why the top of the thumb is missing?

Add your input inside a div and add some padding to this div: https://jsfiddle.net/BNm8j/5589/ — trinaldi, May 23 '16 at 14:16

Here is a (hopefully) very ease to use tool to customize the style of <input> range:
https://toughengineer.github.io/demo/slider-styler

Here is an example:

for (let e of document.querySelectorAll('input[type="range"].slider-progress')) {
  e.style.setProperty('--value', e.value);
  e.style.setProperty('--min', e.min == '' ? '0' : e.min);
  e.style.setProperty('--max', e.max == '' ? '100' : e.max);
  e.addEventListener('input', () => e.style.setProperty('--value', e.value));
}

ordinary slider:<br />
<input type="range" class="styled-slider" style="width: 20em;" /><br />
slider with progress styling (made it slightly longer):<br />
<input type="range" class="styled-slider slider-progress" style="width: 30em;" />
