MP40es Upgrade

I received my MP40w to MP40wES upgrade kits today. The boxes have the correct labeling on them, but the controllers inside have mp10w labels on them. Are they interchangable? Should I go ahead and connect them? If there is a difference, is there a way to tell them appart by numbers on the board? I waited over two weeks for these, I hope I don't have to send them back.

The sticker on the board 10168

The board itself has printed rev 1.4 2009

Thanks,
Andy

Yes, that label means it is an MP40WES board and the sticker on the controller case is wrong. Another way to tell the difference is to see if there is a large orange capacitor on the board(the MP10 ES boards do not have this).
