radio shack or fry's electronics
make sure the microferrads match perfectly a few more or a few less could cause serious problems

I assume these are electrolytic caps for the power bus to replace leaky ones? Microfarads should match or slightly exceed the originals.

Voltage must be no less the orginal - more doesn't hurt but it makes the cap bigger.

Be sure to observe polarity when you replace them.
