Advice regarding full spectrum mod to A7s

Hi all,
I've been considering getting a full spectrum mod done to my A7s and I just wanted to ask if anybody here has any experience with full spectrum modded cameras.

Specifically I want to make sure I can still shoot "normal" visible light images using a filter like this: https://www.lifepixel.com/shop/filte...pass-filters-2
And, assuming the shop that does the conversion gets the correct type of replacement filter, I should still have good autofocus?

I emailed Whiltons Camera in Sydney but they haven't replied (in well over a week!) so I'll probably chase them with a call next week. I've contacted "Sydney Camera Repairs" in Ashfield and they've quoted me $600 including the replacement filter.
I know there's a reputable camera shop in Melbourne which does these mods but I'm trying to stay local if I can.

Anything else I should be aware of?
