Morning! I have to replace these caps . Does anyone know where I can buy a suitable replacement?
I had done all the others Bruce recommended but these 2 sneaky buggers were hiding.
now going to ultrasonic this board and get inspecting!

Rifa capacitors can be replaced by any X or X2 rated capacitors

Do you really need to replace those newer style filter caps? The ones that blow up on the early Macs are different.. I've only ever bothered replacing the older style...
