Default Cracked LH side mirror question! HELP!!

hello, I have a 2013 Lexus GS 350 F sport. Over the winter here in Chicago, my driver side mirror glass cracked while it was heating up. I ordered a couple from EBay but the blind spot alert does not work and it says on the dash “check bsm”. I install the cracked mirror back and blindspot works perfectly. I noticed that my mirror has a grey wire and a peach color wire. The ones I ordered from eBay have black wire and blue wire. Or black wire and red wire. But the sellers say it should work for models 2013-2017. Do I need the exact wire colors as my original mirror? I can’t find any on eBay. Lexus wants $500 plus tax to replace the mirror!!! Help!! I only need the glass not the whole assembly.

You can always get a genuine lexus mirror from a recycling yard. There are a few ones where you can access online.
