side window mechanism broken

Dear Matra enthusiasts,
My window mechanism just broke.
The plastic outer drive tube has snapped off. Just before the bend of the slider.
Does anyone have a tip for repairing or replacing?
it's the left hand side. And the motor is fine.
Thanks
Regards, Bart

I think that is more or less what happened to mine on the passenger side. Following this thread with interest.

Depends how much room you have and if you have enough existing tube before the break,
I used a 10mm plastic push fit pipe connector. Perfect fit and works great.

Hope I'm not hijacking this thread but I had a look at my broken passenger side mechanism and found out the tube snapped at the motor so the push fit pipe connector fix won't work in my case.
Would I need to get a whole new assembly including the motor or is it possible and easier to replace the tubing part? It looked like it's part of the motor and not easily detachable.

Just fixed mine with Pattex "ULTRA GEL" which for now honours its name.
