Default Door Mirror indicator lens - any suggestions?

Here's a challenge that maybe can be met. Or maybe not.

I am about to buy in the UK a 2010 IS 250C which has the indicator (turn/signal) built into the door mirror.

The car is in good shape but the right-hand (driver's side here in the UK) indicator curved lens is broken. The part is worth around $5 but guess what! Lexus UK only sell the cowling complete at several hundred dollars.

Has any of you guys encountered this before and have a solution?

Maybe you can just get the lamp assembly for $85 (the last thing on the list)? You should call to check.

Nosurprise,

That's really helpful - thanks. In theory at least, the part is available to me from the US without buying the complete assembly.
