Broken rearview mirror

i have n 82 GX and the rearview mirror is broken.

it has an overhead lamp built into ti and its hanging by a single plastic hook.

Something is missing or broken and a speed bump is all it takes to knock it loose and then it hangs by the electrical wiring .


is there diagrams out there so i cna see how this piece was assembled so i can see hwat pieces are missing or broken ? so i can fix it?

I could duck tape it ... but where is the fun in that?
