Hi all
My little one is starting to fade out...the sound is almost gone and I would like to do a full cap replacement, but I don't really have neither time nor skill to do it decently.
Is there any place that you would suggest, which is in USA, that does the cap replacement and does it right? Heard about some users from this forum that does repair, so I was wondering if you do also caps replacement and how much is the average charge for this kind of repair.
I am interested in hearing your success stories; if someone did a cap replacement for your GT and it is still working after a long time, that's the kind of experience that I would like to hear :)
Thanks in advance!

Too many excellent techs here that will take care of you, good luck getting it fixed and welcome to the forums!
Edit: They should see your post and message you, be patient. ;-)

Turbokon, thesteve, BlueBMW, apolloboy, and a few others. The first 4 are off the top of my head.

thesteve and chop5!

Keith Courage, another member here, is another damn good tech. I've had work done by him, as have many others.

Thanks for your replies :) I am glad to see that there are so many talented technicians, and that there is no competition among the members....
Have been on other groups and was quite awkward to see people spitting on each other in the same forum. I can understand that there are differences among each member, but I like to see that the majority act as group for the sake of the group :)
I will consider these names, since I am planning to do the job soon.
Thanks!!! And BTW if you had job done by any of these members suggested, and want to share your experience (like Bernie did), feel free to!
