It was a sucsees:

Cut it real nice with my saw



Drilled through the plate just right behind each terminal for positive leads and solder them where terminal comes out of bottom.. Then drilled near a tab I broke off for ground..


Powered the set on, and no BANGS!!


I found that my heat gun worked really well.. Heated it up a few times and stuffed it with an old sock and took a screw driver and did a circular motion a few times.. I didn't get all of it, but the majority is gone.. I did test the old cap and all were still within range with no leakage, though the 80uf was around 69uf.. It was a Son of a bitch to unmount, and mounting wasn't easy either.. I went over to Harbor Freight and bought a cheap 180watt soldering gun and then to Radio Shack to buy a solder sucker, and it even was still hard to remove the solder from the tabs... I'm so not looking forward to unmounting the second one tomorrow night..
