I would like to modify the classic F62 and/or F77 to have a detachable cable with a flush-mount or recessed connector (mini, micro, USB-B, or USB-C).

What would this entail and how difficult would it be?

As an update, Deskthority forum member Hypersphere completed this modification for his zinc case new Model F keyboard last year and posted the details here:
