Further to the above, on the 705 Facebook group, a lot of the guys are saying that the upgrade doesn't require any physical change to the 705 other than a simple board swap over. If you had to make a warranty claim, you simply swap out the new for old board, and no one is to the wiser. Fitting the new board doesn't leave any traces of its placement.
