Replacing electrolytic caps with ceramic ones

[This Does Not Compute]

I'm probably going to have to recap the screen on one of my 1xx series PowerBooks. It has those weird sideways electrolytic caps with rectangular enclosures, with both leads coming out one end. There aren't any modern elecrolytics that are close enough in size or value (3.3uF, 35V), but ceramic caps can come close and are also small enough to fit on the pads. Question is -- the original caps are polarized, whereas ceramic ones are not. Is this going to matter? (I'm not finding any tantalum caps with the correct specs that are also small enough, like 0603 case size.)

I used non-polarized ceramic caps when I did my PowerBook 150 and Duo 230 LCDs, both are working fine:

3.3µF - 35V - SMT - MLCC - Mouser 810-C3216X7R1V335M6A

However, before I knew about that option I did use these tantalums when I did my PowerBook 100 LCD, which work just as well:

3.3µF - 35V - SMT - Tantalum Size B - Mouser 581-TAJB335K035SNJ

The tantalums were a bit easier to handle/place with tweezers but just barely fit. The ceramic ones fit fine but are really tiny, not sure I would have been able do them without my microscope.
