Control Plate flip flop

On my tele, my pickup selector kept getting in the way of my strumming, so i flip flopped the plate around, including the selector so it wasn't backwards. I'm pretty sure it'll be alright considering no wires were removed or replaced, but I'd like to be positive.

    If it works, it works! Aren't your knobs in the way though?
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    Just the tone knob, but who needs tone anyway? :p


    Nah, My knuckles would hit the selector switch and a fairly loose one i guess you could say (my tele's been around the block). I don't hit the tone knob when i strum, but even if i do it's not hard enough to move it.
