Default Vandalized mirror... how much to fix?

I'll be taking it into a shop this weekend hopefully, but I'm hoping to know the rough cost before hand. Electronics still work fine, and the mirror itself is intact... it's just the plastic "hinge" that connects the mirror to the car that is broken.

I wonder if I can convince the insurance company that someone threw a rock at the windshield while I'm at it...

Put some painter's tape on that door so the mirror doesn't scratch the paint all to hell!
