I believe he cut a piece out of the back and glued the original battery door on. I am describing it poorly but he did an amazing job of it. My google is off today but maybe another member can find the link.
You could also use a housing of a newer 19BII with battery door on the back factory-wise, and implant a 28S .
It's somewhat tricky getting the keyboard overlay and then upper case part off without damaging them.

Just for testing I did it the brutal way using two partly defective units, and of course damaged the housings.
However if you do it right, you should be able to separate the case parts in a way that they can be put together again later;-)
