Recap Apple IIGS A2M6014 Monitor

I'm planning to recap my IIGS monitor since it's over 20 years old.

What would be the best capacitors to do the job. I'm used to recapping logic boards and PSU's, however it's my first monitor.

Can i use general purpose radial electrolyte caps or are high frequency or high temperature versions recommanded ?

I'm looking for caps rated 3000 hours or more at 105°C, preferably Nichicon or Panasonic.

Here's an inventory of the capacitors in the monitor.

This website offers a kit, however I find it quite cheap so it are probably capacitors rated at only 1000 hours, while I prefer more durable one's.

Thanks,

Nico
