Peter,
The SPC 900 is one of the easiest mods to perform!
No pin lifting/ track cutting involved...that's a thing of the
past.
Unless you haven't already, look here for a good description of
how to mod one: two takes on the same procedure:

I can recommend it if your handy with even basic soldering.
If not, I could mod one for you if you covered the postage?
