Glitterrattii queries

I've ordered my Glitterrattii board and just ordering the components and have a few questions.

I'm wondering what caps to order, basically the non electrolytic ones.  I presume it will be the film ones from the list here....

But there seem to be a lot of options and I wonder if they will all fit.  i.e. will all the box ones be the correct size for the board?

Also, D3 is stated as a 1n4005 but musikding only has 1n4004 or 1n4007.  Will either of those be okay?

The Glitterrattii has 5mm spacing for the caps. This will accomodate a variety of different types (radial, not axial).

From your link, any of those Panasonic ECQ would be fine, or the WIMA MKP2.

For D3, 1n4004 or 7 will do the same job. This is for reverse polarity protection in case you somehow plugged in a -9v instead of +9v adaptor.
