I don't know. I've seen a number of C64 and Vic20 cap replacement kits.

I think it may be good practice to replace all of them..

Did you know someone reverse engineered the C64 mainboard and sells it new?

I think you can order the cap kits from him too. I've seen the kits on various
sites on the web so they're not novel.
