You will probably have to try your local salvage yard.

I looked it up by OEM part number, the only question was with or without the rear washer option. I am guessing maybe the sprayer is there, (maybe).

If you want one or more info, let me know..

you can actually replace the light and it still not work. In behind the light is a ballast (like a flourescent light) I have had those go bad too. Thats why the dealer quoted such a high price. It might include the cost for both components.
