I'd call a local TV repair shop. Ask them if you bring them a car stereo, could they replace a simple 1/8th stereo jack.
I doubt it will cost more than $50 in labor.
Actually, a better source might be a place where you would bring an aftermarket radio for warranty work. Check out "Authorized Service Centers" for Alpine, Kenwood, etc. One of those places can more than likely do the job.
Of course I've never been inside the radio, but if it's wired you should be able to do it yourself. If it's soldered right to a board, then it requires a little more finesse. If your plan is to completely replace the radio, I'd at least get a soldering iron and take a crack at it. The part is less than $5 at Radio Shack, or at least one that will do the job.
It's probably one of these...
