I do not know if you are refferring to the 512k trapdoor expansion or if you want more than that.

I have a couple of A501 512k+clock expansions. But I also have a few expanders that plug into the 68k socket and can carry up to 2MB using cheap 256kx4 DRAM chips.

What you need is a MegAChip 2000/500 or clone that gives 2MB Chip RAM.

MegAChip isn't needed on A500+, just a trapdoor expansion like this:

Edit: BTW, Vesalia has one listed for EUR ~20.

Wrong, that will not provide 2MB Chip RAM!  You need the 2MB Agnus for that.

A500+ already has the 2mb agnus (8375), and that expansion gives the A500+ 2mb chipmem, just like in my lovely A500+  :-) (my expansion is not elbox though) the ability to easily upgrade to 2mb chipmem was one of the things that made A500+ superior to A500.

Watch ebay.  One just ended for £2.01!

Oh sorry didn't see the + I never seen or owned a 500+ before, they are quite rare in the US.
