No, it's essentially the same as the bridge card used to connect the FMV cartridge, but with the addition of a VGA port for easier connection to monitors. I think the intent is for it to be a low-cost way of getting a VGA port onto a CD32, with the expansion slot being an added bonus for those few internal-only peripherals (FMV cartridge, I think there's an RTC, maybe a few others).

What a weird idea?! So it's just a SX-32 backplate without the accelerator and missing ALL the ports other than a VGA port! Why? Is a re-engineered DCE 030 board to follow or are they in league with the Vampire team providing a path to a Vampire CD32?

Plus doesn't the Indivision CD32 model give a VGA port plus scan-doubled screen modes? Why would you choose this instead?

No internal modification were needed with the SX32 (unless you wanted to use a PC keyboard which required an additional wire attached to a pin on the SX32). You just needed to open it up so that the board fits inside the case. It's slightly to big to fit through the slot and so you need to removed the screws to insert the board inside the machine. A very snug fit but a great design.
