Anyone a Arcam FMJ C31 (retrofit phono stage) ?

Anyone a Arcam FMJ C31?

I wrote Arcam asked if its possible to retrofit a phono stage? Didn't have a answer (yet).

At the time its was a option you could buy. Looking at the PCB (photo below) I don't see any unpopulated area for this stage. Therefor I assume its a PCB thats mounted separately.

I tried looking up some tear-down photo's but I can't find a whole lot, just one of the inside, here: http://usr.audioasylum.com/images/y2016/02/149075/P1090844.JPG.

This one doesn't have the phono stage. From the manual I understood it should be mounted on the right bottom side (picture above). Well at least thats where the RCA jacks are located. Below the jacks is a MM/MC switch.

Backside (phono top right): http://img.aussieaudiomart.com/uploads/large/1281444-arcam-fmj-c31-preamplifier-in-black-no-phono.jpg

Maybe someone knows how the phono-stage is built in?

Thanks.
