Great writeup!

Be sure to trim off the 'pigtails' on the capacitors you installed. Otherwise they will short out on the can housing when you install it and the clock will stop working very quickly. Finding that error took me longer than I care to admit.

Illumination:
I put in a a bright white LED from Radio Shack. I was very happy with that - it was far brighter than the original mini-mini bulb - but after about two years the LED failed. Not being that much of an electronics person I'm not sure whether to blame the part and its source or another cause - and I haven't taken the time to remove the clock to troubleshoot it.
