[V8] v8 bose speaker recall

[Buchholz, Steven]

... if you are willing to go through the trouble of removing the amplifiers from the speaker modules (i.e. remove door panels, extricate speaker units, open speaker units, remove amplifier card) and send it/them to me I would be willing to do the capacitor swap work for you and test it out for the cost of the parts and return shipping.  You can reinstall the door panel without the speaker unit installed ... BTDT.  I can test the amplifier card for functionality after the repair operation.  You risk losing the amount of the cost of the parts and shipping if there is something more wrong besides the caps.  I'd estimate the cost to be something like $20 ... 

Obviously I'm not making any money in this, so I won't be able to handle a lot of these ... but if you want to take me up on the offer let me know!  Send a direct e-mail to me at urqATpacbellDOTnet ... and make sure the subject says something like "Bose Repair" ...
