Window help

Hello friends, my window mechanism broke. Removed door panel and found round plastic thing chipped in a corner where it is supposed to grab some kind of cable. Do I have to buy the whole system new? do i have any other option? does anybody know the part number? is that a common thing with our cars? Thanks to all.
P.D. Sorry if you see similar question in "problems + fixes", I revived an old thread but dont see my post so I opened new one.

Hello, already found part number. Seems to be 72250-S3M-A03
This is my only reliable solution right? no need to waste time trying to fix it?

I posted the PN in the other thread. Just replace it. When the metal tab holding the plastic in bends it cause the plastic to break. I really wish Honda would reinforce that metal tab.

Wont work. Its a rotating assembly, JB Weld would either prevent it from rotating or break off.

I was going to make a DIY about it but it really is very self explanatory once you have the door panel off.

yes, thanks to everybody, ordered parts today, should receive next week (also replacing imrc valve and side view mirror... have to order everything from the US since I live in Panama - Central America)... replacing also the side view mirror that got banged by speeding truck few days ago (hit & run). Last Monday, driving to work on the highway (100 Mph) I encountered an empty 5 gallon bucket jumping all over, avoided most of it but still got me on the corner of bumper (only scrape, lucky no need to change any part)... just felt the need to share recent mishaps in banana republic. All the best!
