Do capacitors really need replacing in these or will they be ok. I read 500 seriies does not need them replacing like with the 1200 but unsure if true.
Unlike the surface mount capacitors of later Amigas, the A500 through hole capacitors don't really need replacing since they don't fail as much.

I also want to get a 1mb expansion for the trapdoor do it has 2mb will the following be ok
If I understood your question, yes.  I got my RAM expansion from AmigaKit.com which upgraded my A500+ to 2 meg Chip RAM.
