Information above and beyond a simple diode-clip or add is not an easy or 
reliable thing to "glom".  Sometimes.  But not all.  I've found that 99.5% of 
the people don't want to compare a mod for one scanner and then figure out 
how to apply it to a similar one.  At least, I haven't been able to impart 
that breakthrough yet.
So I doubt if you will find explicit instructions anywhere for most of the 
PRO-2004/5/6 mods to be converted to the newer PRO-2035/2042 chassis.
Looks to me like you're up for some original research.
