More poor design from BRP

Hope it all works and stays together as this silly piece of plastic costs $104:yikes:. Looked at three suppliers and they were the same price.nojoke After seeing that ridiculous price---- I had to find a way to fix it.

UPDATE:
After fixing the above, two more problems cropped up:
1. The trickled fenderz, sequential light I recently installed weren't right so I dove into them also. A loose connection at the mirror tap . If you have these the connector MUST be pushed together REALLY hard or it will come loose. I taped it also.
2. As in the first fix, a tab has broken off but this time on the bottom of the mirror. Right where you strike to to remove the mirror ( if you don't have the Magic mirror magnets) I'm sure it broke a while back when I was hitting the mirror to remove it ( what a poor design in the first place). Another $100+ part of brittle plastic.
