The cheapest I found one for is $89.00 U.S. with free shipping. That's
cheaper than hours of labor trying to make incompatible parts work.

The cheapest I found in the UK was , with all the usual extras about 90
pounds. Much more interesting playing around/hacking. No guarantee that
there is not some sort of random ps or other surge that knocked out the
original laser and could equally do the same with a 90 quid replacement


You could try just looking at various Sanyo pickups on eBay and probably
find it there under the SFP or whatever number.
