Of course, I know others will say it, so I'll do it first.

If you're concerned with cheap, you should get rid of the car now... Just because the purchase price is reasonable, doesn't mean maintaining it will be.

Best option is to use this as an excuse to upgrade to a good aftermarket double din unit, instead of throwing money away on a used headunit that's just as old (and just as likely to break) as the one you're replacing.

You can always live in fear. There are DD units with detachable faces, or you can trim your stock trim to fit over the DD kit if you're creative.

There are a few places that will repair your stock radio. Google OEM radio repair or something like that. You will be without AC while the radio is out of the dash.
