Additional Information:

• The total time this installation should take you is upwards of 30 minutes.
• The best way to remove the original caps is with a pair of needle nose pliers. There is a specific technique that requires you to push down on the cap while gripping it with the plier, then rotating back and forth until the cap is freed (rotating no more than 180 degrees in either direction to avoid ripping pads). You can rip pads so be very careful and practice on scrap boards before attempting this.
• Once the original caps are removed you will have to desolder and clean the pads before installation of this (keep in mind to desolder the original two legs from the original capacitors first, then copper braid the pad; don\'t use a cheap solder sucker, use braid).
• Add flux and position the cap in place on the pad, the flux will act like glue to keep the cap in place. Make sure the legs of the cap are positioned properly on the pads, this does not mean that cap labeling will be centered and oriented correctly, focus on the position of the legs on the pad, not the centering of the cap.
• The labeling of the caps may be different than what are shown in the ad; they are all genuine Panasonic/Wurth capacitors from reputable US suppliers.
• All capacitors are sealed like as shown in the pictures. They will be placed in a reusable small anti-static bag.

Misc Notes:

• When you put back the top of the case, YOU MUST keep the disc tray open or else you WILL destroy the legs of the door lid sensor that is attached to the DVD drive.
• When putting back screws DO NOT re-thread the screws! What this means is that if the screw does not easily go in, you must remove it and try again. You can snap the legs inside the GameCube case if you re-thread the screws. Hint! Go counterclockwise when screwing in screws until you feel a slight CLICK. Once you feel that click, screw clockwise, the screw should be in position.
