I found this gem in a box of parts I bought last Sat. It's an early interior rearview mirror in very good shape, but the glass is cracked.

Can this glass be replaced? Source?

Thank you.

The plastic is very tough.
I ruined one in the interest of science.
It was wobbily anyway so hacked it up to see the innerds.
It must have been assembled originally as a pliable shell because there is a screw
inside that is inaccesible after the glass is installed.
The wobbily mount was easily remedied (loose screw) with the glass removed.
Immerse in boiling water to allow assembly ?
