Default Bird Damage

So while driving on the nice beaches of Oregon i happened to drive upon a flock of seagulls that got spooked and decided to fly infront of my truck and give there life in a kamikazee attempt to take out my driver mirror (they succeeded).
so i have this mirror thats dangleing from my door and i zip tied it back down because the only thing that broke was the swivel. so my question to whoever wants to answer and help me out is...
Can i disassemble my mirror and just replace the broken swivel or do i have to fork out the cash for a new one?
Ford wants $180
Summit wants $80
random chop shop internet dealers want $60-$80
preciate any ideas or opinions

not sure on the swivel style mirrors but i would amagine that you probobaly will end up having to buy the complete assembly i would check ebay or even a boneyard you would be suprised what you can find at the junkyard for cheap!!

More than likely just going to have to replace the whole unit.
