Have him replace the caps while he's in there to prevent any leakage.

The Ebay socket is the correct one.

if you end up doing the caps, and your def doing the socketing. Might order through digikey, think I got original caps and higher rated voltage caps for around 5 dollars.

Be careful

Plus a handling fee for not ordering enough. Use mouser. They're not that greedy with shipping and handling

Sockets like these are literally about as common as a Penny. They can be found in everything as far as old printers to Radio Shack. EEPROM sockets have been used for many, many years now but not all hold the same quality - though this is debatable per how simple they are. Normally even a local electronics' shop or PC repair shop can do a socket/cap replacement for you. Just make sure they agree to the value of your ECU/Board and back their work before you just hand it off. I find that sending the ECU in for proper cap replacement and socketing has a little more than ridiculous turn around and the cost just isn't worth it for such a menial task.
