[Elecraft] K2 Ferrite Bead Assemblies - Install Question

How important is it that the two ferrite bead 
assemblies (on the RF board) be identical in 
length.  One of the two I installed is a bit 
longer (the wire's maybe an 1/8 inch or 3/16 inch 
longer ) than the other.  I'm pretty persnickety 
and would like the two to be p exactly the same, 
but it will be a bit of a hassle to unsolder one 
of the two existing assemblies and resolder in a 
new one that's a better match.  If there's no 
effect on performance (it's just an appearance 
issue) then I'll talk myself into leaving the 
assemblies as installed.

As always, thanks!
