I think that the mod was to convert an console-HW into a console-ST.

I have my own photo that I created over here:

You'll want to zoom in on the web browser to get the full-res version.

You need to cut the traces on the top side where the dotted red lines
are, and add two wires where the black lines go.

Because the cut lines are between vias, its fairly easy to go back by
removing the wires you added and putting jumpers on the top side over
the cut traces.
