crappy VIOS stereo

[BeetOls]

Has anybody here tried having the stereo on their vios serviced? The one on my sis' 2 year old vios just won't read any cds (both original and cd-r) and her first stop was the casa...she was given an estimate of around P3500 since it looks like it's the lens that's damaged. The price excludes uninstallation plus the labor fee dun sa gagawa (maybe around P800 all). I think that is kind of too much for such a very basic HU (2 DIN) with such a basic design and features. If i'm not mistaken, futjitsu ba ang maker nito?

Can somebody advise a cheaper alternative kase mukhang taga yung price nila eh. I am planning to just get another 2 DIN H.U. as i've seen some cheap ones here in the net. Around 10k for a brand new and 6k+ for 2nd hand ones na alpine. I guess my question is, is the stock unit of the same size as with any other 2 DIN's?

If i decide to just have it fixed? may ma suggest ba kayo na gagawa nito aside from the casa?

TIA!
