I'm figuring the conversion should be similar to the Spektrum one (http://formuladrc.forumotion.com/t17...b-modification) - basically, you would need to do is fine the V+, ground and ppm signal, then route the antenna. You may need a resistor (12k) between the ppm and + pins from my understanding.

yes. it can be done with the ko 2.4ghz module.
all ya need to do is to unscrew the 2 screws at the base of the 2.4ghz module.
ko uses an expander plug to anchor the antenna, all you need to do is to use a relatively wide philips screwdriver to lift the expander plug out.
once done, the antenna could pushed out from the insider.
careful with the antenna wire though, there is a later of glue gum wrapped around it. ya probably have to cut up the plastic swivel to get the wire out.

and ya will have to drill a small hole on the pcb board to route the antenna down and into the transmitter chassis.

as for the rest of the procedure, just follow the link that was posted.
