Same Mk2 FL mirrors, different mounting base

Hi!

Leon MK2 Facelift (2009. dec)
My left mirror became faulty a year ago (motor issue). I want to replace it. I'm familiar with the process, I've done it before on my previous Leon, but I ran into something unusual this time.

The mounting base of the faulty mirror is completely different from what I've seen before (the difference in the circled area). My problem is that I dont know how to distinguish between these two types when searching for a replacement online. Both mirrors on the images are for an MK2 Facelift model, and I need the first one.

I haven't found any part info that differentiates the two versions, and none of the online shops mention the mounting base in their descriptions. Whats more, the only mirror type I found online is the one on the second image.

There should be two different part IDs, but I can't find any reference to them. The issue is that the mirror in the second image doesn't fit into the door at all due to the different hole sizes.

Has anyone come across something similar? Do you know what part ID I should be looking for to find the first mirror (the one I labeled in the picture)?

Thanks!
