I broke my drivers side rear view mirror bracket on our 2017 Outback. I'm trying to figure out what part I need from the parts diagrams online. To me it looks like it is the black plastic piece that swivels. Do I have to buy the entire mirror assembly?

The broken piece frames the front side of the mirror and attaches to the post the mounts to the car's body. I don't have heated mirrors, just the electronic adjust with the lane warning for cars in the next lane. Seems odd that I would have to buy everything but the mirror itself and the two back-side covers.
  • The back-side lower black plastic panel is fine.
  • The back-side upper painted (matches car's color) piece is fine.
  • The mirror itself is fine, along with the electronic lane warning for cars beside you.
  • The electronic blinker assembly is fine.

Turns out I had to buy the whole LH mirror assembly (91036AL20B). It came to $132 including shipping from subarupartsdeal.com. You can only buy the back covers, mirror itself, turn signal separately. Break anything else and it is the whole unit. I'll have to remove the door panel to install it. FYI, salvage yards were not cheaper.
