Why don't you just fix it? The capacitors are cheap.

This is true but three things works against yours:

1. Age of TV therefore age of tube.
2. Mitsubishi pip modules tend to be too gone when got their hands on
it or has capacitor gack all over it, more work to carefully clean up.
The stuff is very hard to remove, mostly water, oil and corrosive
emulstion. Very necessary to prevent copper from corroding any
futher. And very certain have to repair several corroded tracks.
3. Labor! Swapping out 26 caps takes quite awhile on a module kills
the profit made on each because of #1 forces you to quote low estimate
like 150 to 200, even less.

Few people uses PIP. It's a no loss to lose it, just bypass it every
time.
