If you do not need a new housing, drill a small hole in what is left of the clip on the back of the indicator housing. Thread through a tie wrap (or 2) and attach to somewhere (top of the grill in an Exige S2 through the hole where the screwdriver goes when trying to release the indicator if the catch is not broken!!!). Then tiger seal in place. Belt and braces. You can do all of this with the car jacked up, the NS front wheel off and arch liner removed. Around 30 mins work and saves £100+ and a long parts wait. Did this to the NS when it made a break for freedom in 2014. Had Murrays do the other side when the clam was off in 2015 just to be sure. No issues since.....
