Thanks for the comments, even though I ignored them :) 

I went with the surface mount option
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351554609760?  because they looked easier to
use. And it's only a cheap system in my workshop so I didn't want to
start A/B testing the channels for sound quality improvements.

I didn't try twisting them off, maybe I should have. On the first one I
damaged the track a bit, but it seems OK after I soldered the part on.
Then I changed the part on the working channel at the same time on the
basis that the original part is incorrectly biased and liable to fail.

And it all works now.
