After muffing one install with the zip tie, I have now installed it on about 10 boards. Friends have asked me to help them. Expert now. It’s not bad, but you need to be aware of any pressure it’s putting on the diode and use both hands to position the zip tie correctly.
As for the muffed one, I replaced the broken diode and am perfect now.
I would not recommend you do this with the board inside the game. It’s easy to remove it.
