replacing gear drive for mirror

[batmanmiami1]

Have a 2015 g80 sedan and the driver side mirror does not close. I know the issue (broken worm gear) but I cannot find the part number for the gear, in fact the Genesis dealer claims the mirror cannot be repaired and that single part cannot be purchased, at least from the dealer. Not buying it. Just can't seem to find the part, any help on this one?
Update - found the part available on Amazon BGE552FBA. Now which is going to be easier, rebuild the Panama Canal or take the mirror apart a repair it properly.

I used this video to replace that exact part on my mirror -

I installed that metal gear in mine about 8 months ago using that same video. Wasn’t too bad. Only problem was when I pulled the motor apart, at the 6:53 point in the video, the little circuit board with the yellow capacitors fell out of it’s little housing and I had a hard time figuring out how to get it back in as there are some contacts that have to align. So don’t let it fall out.

Although the video depicted is a little misleading on the heading it does contain a lot of the same steps I will need or not need to do for a 2015 G80. It's titled "2016 Hyundai Genesis... " the gentleman doing the repair clearly states it for a 2013 Genesis, which is not the same mirror that's on the '15 and newer. I think with the instructions from the video, and some other sources, I might be able to pull it off. I look at it this way, if I get i right I'll save $400 for a used one, if I screw it up up, well it won't be the first time.
(the gear is the same it would appear for most all of the years with the folding feature)

The "2016 Hyundai Genesis" you're seeing is the guy's signature that posted the video - NOT part of the video itself.
