So I know why they weren't installed...
Coil Whine from the controller :x
and it looks like the board is glued to the enclosure, so it doesn't look easy to replace the cap :(

I filled it with hot glue as some people say that it will stop the whine, it didn't but quietened it a little bit.
Wrapping it in 1 old shirt nearly silenced it completely, so I may try in two tomorrow, and just throw it behind the dash like that :p

So tightly wrapped it in one old shirt, it is inaudible :)
Just realised it is colour changing too :)
