Hyundai Elantra Wiper Fluid Reservoir is Cracked

I have a 2000 Hyundai Elantra Wagon and the windshield wiper fluid reservoir has cracked and won't hold any fluid. I have called around for the replacement part and the cost is outrageous for a piece of plastic. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could do to repair the crack myself or an inexpensive place to purchase a new one? Any help would be appreciated!

An auto junk yard may have the part.

try so silicon sealer on it. Im not sure if it will work but it worked for mine when it had a small crack in it.

Go to a big box store and buy a two part epoxy cement. If you can take out the reservoir it may be easier to work on. Clean the area where the crack is and apply the expoxy. Let cure and fill the reservoir.
