Id rather just replace them and be done with it. period. But thats my philosophy.

Ya the caps on the LCD are another issue, but i covered that back on my PB 1XX models. I just used the same style SMD replacements because clearances are too small.

For the record, the ESR on SMD lytics wernt anything to write home about anyway.. thats why engineers use multitudes of them for one general circuit instead of 1 large one.
