Wink 04 RX330 passenger replacement mirror - HELP

Hello, I have a 2004 lexus RX330 and the passenger mirror was broken. Not the casing, just the outside anti-glare mirror & that liquid came out as well. I removed the mirror part & wire from the entire casing. I totally cannot afford what lexus is charging. Can you tell me the name of the part or where I can find it less expensive please?

I looked but they only have the entire passenger part & I only need the mirror that connects into the casing.

About 4 years ago I had to replace the driver's side mirror on my 98 GS300. After checking with a couple body shops, a Lexus dealer and on the internet I found that the outside mirrors come only as complete mirror and housings. The mirror itself is not available from anyone. The one good thing is that the housing comes prepainted. When the replacement is ordered the paint code is entered as well. Also found out from the body shop that just about every make and model of vehicle is the same way. The whole assembly has to be replaced, not just the mirror. The good thing is that Lexus has theirs with finishes applied whereas most other makes come unpainted and so the body shop will charge another $100 or so for the paint and application. I believe the new mirror assembly ran me around $500. installed ($450. for the mirror assembly).

I believe L-Tuned sells just the glass mirrors without the housing. I don't know what your budget is, but the l-tuned one runs about $189.28. It comes in a pair so I don't know if you can buy only one. You might want to call or email them about it. Here's a link to the website:
