You're right, nothing but polished junkyard junk.
Good luck finding your part.

I just had mine changed under warranty. They had the car for a week and said it was difficult to get the part. They had to provide a loaner so the wait was not bad.

I did ask the service writer how much the work would have been if not under warranty and he said $750 with parts and labor.
