    I feel like the room is empty now. However I will still try and correct SBGKs suggestion.

    See Johns instruction above for removing the small Surface Mount caps.
    For the larger cans they have a plastic housing at their base which gets in the way a little but the solder pads can still be heated from either side. If the plastic housing is getting in the way too much it can be carefully cut out exposing more of the pads. (the plastic housing is not needed for the replacements)

    Please come back and contribute people. We had a good thing happening here. Everything that others contributed inspired me to explore and share further and I hope my energy had the same effect on others. For the minority with misinformation there are probably twenty others who are responsible, can make positive contributions or are willing to learn the right way of doing things.
