Err don't do it with all the kit inside Definitely remove everything first, just the vibration could cause damage to components and you don't need any metal shavings you can't see shorting out components, not to mention anything else.

I'd be more worried about metal fragments getting into the circuits and shorting something, can't the side be removed
