Took a bit of looking but found a YouTube video of the modification I was referring to.

It looks like it would take a lot of care to do but looks like a much simpler proposition than switching cases. Just look at the number of heat stakes visible in half the battery compartment. I think the only really tricky part would be cutting out the back of the case so cleanly. If you had a parts calculator I would cut an oversized section out to use as a door. This would allow you to not have to make such precision perfectly straight cuts initially though you would spend more time fitting the new door.
