Regarding the electrolytic cans, your 500-C is certainly worth the investment in Hayseed Hamfest replacements. Pricey, yes, but the set will look much better with those than if you opened up and restuffed the original cans. Plus, there's something to be said for safety. Having come close to seriously cutting a finger or thumb in opening and restuffing those electrolytic cans...yes...I would bite the bullet and invest in the Hayseed caps.
