Doubt on mk3 to mk3s upgrade kit

Hello again forum!

On March 7th I will receive my Mk3 to Mk3s printed upgrade kit (on my B-day haha) and I have found that the upgrade includes a textile sleeve for the extruder cables.
My current mk3 has one of those for the heat bed and the other 2 are the previous plastic ones.
My doubt is: the upgrade kit does not include the newest motherboard housing, will I need it in other to accommodate on a better way the sleeves? If it is needed, can it be printed in pla? Will I be able to continue to use the plastic sleeve on the x motor with the new shell?

Thank you so much for your time!

Late reply but if you havent upgraded yet I also have the old board housing. I put the textile sleve on it and secured it with a strap as was done with the spiral wrap and it works good.

I will print the housing when I have time, also I need to print the new belt holder for the y carriage which looks like a better design than the old way of tightening the belt.

Anyway it is printing better then before now, partly due to me tightening the belts to get rid of ghosting.

Regards
Magnus
