Believe it or not but Radio Shack has the insulators and the heat compound
goop. (or they did the last time I was working on a Sunday trying to get
a monitor going)..

Oh yeah -- I've found that after replacing those transistors (after you've
mounted them but before you've reattached the wires to the board..) its
well worth the 30 seconds with a VOM to make sure you haven't shorted
anything out to the chassis (and also to catch the occasional defective
transistor in the supposedly good pile.. -- never trust operator's parts..)
