Installing a 3DS joystick onto a Circuit Sword

[Metaphysical Logic]

So I'm attempting my first build and need help installing a 3DS joystick. I see that it's 4 pins and I've seen previous posts explaining to de-solder the ribbon cable from the joystick and then to solder the 4 wires from the stick to the board. I want to make sure this is how you do it. I also ordered a 6 pin 0.5mm FFC FPC to 6P dip 2.54mm PCB converter board adapter but I think I may have ordered this in jest. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

If you put it in the middle, and you have a recent-ish version of the board, you'll see that there is already an FPC connector just below that cutout hole in the middle otherwise snapping off that bit of plastic and soldering wires is the best way

That's what I figured just needed to make sure. 4 pin jst connectors should fit correct?

Yeh the kit included a couple, they are JST SH 4pin (1.0mm) connectors on the socket things
