Just broke my side mirror

Any suggestions on the best way to fix it. Some good glue will be enough or how much should cost me the piece that broke (it seems to be a small cylinder around the electric cable), shipped to Portugal?

Personally I wouldn't glue/epoxy it for a permament fix. For temporary I would head on over to the hardware store and look at compatible epoxies. But for the long run IMO you should contact fritz flynn as I'm sure he can hook you up with a nice used piece. If you want new you can always call Ray at Malloy Mazda...

Shipping to portugal? Sorry bro I have no idea.

Trying to find a picture of what I need/broken piece outside the mirror. I would prefer to put a new one instead of glue.

It seems that the mirror is hold by a metal tube with the cable crossing and had some hot glue to help, from the previous owner.

I might just glue all over if I can't find the pipe. Buying the whole thing must be expensive.

99.995% sure that mazda is going to sell you the whole mirror and not just the pieces inside.
