[V8] bose rebuild

[Matt Smith]

I have one of those "amps" that goes to a bose front speaker. My car didn't
have the bose speakers in it when I got it, but inside the black box was the
circuit board looking thing wrapped in the white cottony like stuff. It
says:

Alpha Frt Leath
133356-A01
3062/HA01

There is probably one in the other side too, but I haven't had that panel
off yet. It's free if anyone wants it. Or does anyone have anything to
trade? My cell phone antennae is a little bent and my front right headlight
wiper "holder" doesn't hold the wiper very well anymore since a piece broke
off. If you have either of these pieces to trade with me...cool. If not, no
biggie. You can have the part anyway.

I see why these amps can torch your car. The amp is wrapped in a gauze like
sound deadener. If a component goes critical, it could ignite this stuff and
in a full meltdown, catch the plastic speaker enclosure on fire. It would
have been smart for Bose to have put a pico fuse right in the amp. Maybe I
will do it myself.

Anyway, the parts I suspect are the two big power supply caps. They seem to
cross to this part from digikey.com:

820uF 16v  105 deg C
panasonic   P10251-ND
$0.99 each or about $6 for 10

Does that sound familier to anyone? I am going to order 10 of them pretty
soon. There are two per amp so I need 8 to do them all.
