There's a risk of getting non-genuine parts from these shops. There was a post somewhere in this forum that Mazford sells fake Mazda parts and Golden Isuzu sells the genuine ones. It's hard to tell if these claims are true. For peace of mind, I would go for the casa option. You can be sure you can go back to them in case something went wrong with the replacement and/or if the replaced part is defective. Best of all the parts are definitely genuine.

Mazford will outsource the job to Banawe "quickie" mechanics when it comes to replacing various parts in the car. I wouldn't recommend this option as there's uncertainty with the quality of their mechanic's work (based from my unfortunate experience with the 1st gen Mazda). I have no idea for Golden Isuzu unfortunately.
