Need US versions of modulator and Nano boards #1

I'd like to build this, but the cutout for the video jack on my US ZX81/Timex-Sinclair 1000 is near the back left of the case. If the boards are simply mounted "upside down", the jack looks like it would line up pretty well, but of course the mounting holes and headers don't.

US versions of the boards would be much appreciated!

On the VideoOut PCB it is easy to swap RCA connector and Reset button. If you need no Reset button you can even mount the RCA on the hole grid area manually. Or take Eagle or Kicad and modify the board.

But WespiNano I think it is impossible because the ESP32 is to big to mount the Video connector left of it. And moving it down collides with the pin header which cannot be move because it has to fit the location on the main PCB.
