I suggest removing the mirror from you RX and looking at the repair possibilities on a work bench. I haven't removed an exterior mirror from an RX but I've removed and disassembled mirrors on other vehicles made by Toyota including ones that power fold. It's not all that difficult to remove and reinstall but it usually does require removing the door panel. All you need are interior trim tools, medium size Phillips screw driver and a metric socket set. Or purchase a used exterior mirror assembly and have it repainted if necessary. Maybe the paint won't match perfectly but after all it's a 17 year old low value vehicle. No one except you will notice if the paint match isn't perfect. There are videos on YouTube on removing RX mirrors that I easily found with Google.
