Default Side Indicator / Marker Ripped Out With Cable

Got up this morning to the pleasant surprise of marks all over the side, and the indicator missing.
Body shop removed the marks (luckily it wasn't my paint, but the other car's) and a little polish later will get it squeaky clean. Sadly though, the side indicator is missing, including the cable and bulb housing, as well as the lens of course. Details were not left on the car, apparently karma didn't reward me for leaving details when hitting another parked car 2 years ago.
I can get the lens, but does anyone have the part number for the cable and bulb housing? Also, any procedure/hint on how to replace the ripped out cable?

Many thanks

If it doesn't have a plug connecter then it's splice and solder. TM

How do I even get there? Is it from inside the car or through the wheel arch?

You'll have to remove the wheel liner. It's not a difficult job. Glad your car is OK. Good luck.

Yes, inside the wheel liner. I also forgot to mention your good fortune that the paint and metal didn't get deep scratched or creased. Then it would be off to the body shop. TM
