Zenith 6S27
#64

You need to be careful with those candohm units if you leave them physically in place and tack on replacements.  Sometimes the open section can temporarily come to life, or worse yet, one section decides to short to ground  Icon_eek

There are different schools of thoughts on how best to replace them.  Some use terminal strips, but these turret strips I found on eBay work well for me:

You can remove unneeded turrets and then cut to length:
