I agree. It's just a tapered fiberglass pole.

Had the same trouble with a part for my tundra. snip
Wrong, $103 from toyota. Checked

Try a junkyard. They're usually a good source for parts like
these. I broke a tail light lens a few years back on a car they
don't make any more. I found a similar make & model in the yard,
and got my replacement part for a couple of bucks and a little
time twirling a screwdriver.
