Default Television discharge question

Hello,

I have an old rear projection television that I would like to take
apart and use the frame for another project. The television has not
been plugged in since the year 2000. Do I still need to discharge
capacitors even though it hasn't seen AC in 4 years? Could anyone
tell me how long it would take on average for the caps to discharge
by themselves?

Thanks in advance.
