Pre-wired EMG's

Dear EMG, great idea to pre-wire your controls at the factory, but it does me no good when they won't even FIT IN MY GUITAR!!!!
OK, this might be a dumb question (I'm no electrician), but there is a capacitor (see picture) that is connected between the volume and tone, but the spacing between the two on my guitar forces me to disconnect one end. Is it possible to solder a piece of solid wire (I have some from an older installation kit) to one end in order to make it longer? Will this change anything?
Also, a tip for anyone that may want to install these. Take a piece of electrical tape and once the clip is hooked up to the pickup cover that sucker. I found out the hard way that it can come unclipped after messing around with the wires, a slight tug is all it takes.
Peace!!
