You'll need to drill out the pop rivets and replace them with self-tapping screws. The effect will be to add greater resolution and clarity to the 075's. The audible difference is very noticable and worth the effort. I would recommend using an AudioCap .01 mfd 600 v unit available from Parts Express. They cost $3.92 @ and have part number 027-700. This applies to anyone with an N7000 or N8000 network.
