[Elecraft] Size of 220mfd cap for BPF

It does not compute to order the kit as the postage is too high and the capacitors appear to be relatively easily available. So my question is what physical size is the 220mfd solid polymer cap used to bypass the zener in the BPF mods (enabling reception down to 500KHz). It would appear to be a 16v component but I guess 10v would suffice. Clearly it would need to be small enough to fit in the available space but without taking my K3 apart I cannot measure that readily, so if someone has one they could measure for me (diameter is critical as it lays on its side), that would be grand.
