I'm working on a Philco 89 (code 123) and I'm ready to replace the 5 bypass capacitors in the metal can under the chassis (part no. 4). They are .05,.05,.09,.09 and .25 uF.

I have some capacitors of those approx values rated at 200V. Can I get away with that voltage? or do I need to get capacitors with a higher voltage?
Thanks,
