I am also rebuilding the 118 multisection cap right now and mylars are the way to go, especially since several sections are used as RF bypasses. There is plenty of room inside to fit the tubular style mylars.
You can drill a tiny hole next to each of the cap terminals to pass the lead from the replacement cap and then solder it to the respective terminal. The lead from the common ground end can be passed out at the base under the clamp and connected there.
