misbehaving A308CR CD player

My CD player is starting to skip some.  I suspect that the transport needs to be replaced.  I can do that myself if I knew where to get a replacement...Does anyone know where I can get one?  Or should I send it away for repair?

Open it up and clean the optics. If that sounds scary there are CDs with little carbon fiber brushes they seem to work pretty good. If that doesn't solve it then rather than repair send it out for mods that will greatly improve performance for not much more than you'd pay to just have the part replaced.

I have ordered a cleaning disc but doubt that it will help because when I opened up the player, there wasn't any dust inside.Who would you recommend for simple upgrades if I decide to go that way?
