Here is a pic of the metal box capacitor rebuild. I bent the tabs back, removed the cardboard. The guts didnt slide right out, so I had to warm with a heat gun, then stuff came right out.
I put the cardboard wrapper back inside, soldered a new cap inside with a new wire, reassembled, and - done.
If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"
