Did you have to modify the hole or does an alps switch just fit the same opening as mx?

No, this plate actually has an Alps hole where the backslash key goes. It's from a Steelseries 6Gv2, which has a big-ass Enter (L-shaped). The switch sits where an ANSI enter is, and the keycap has a stabilizer shaft where the backslash key would be. The shaft runs in a plastic insert that fits an Alps plate mount hole.
I decided to convert it to ANSI by mounting an Alps switch, there is no traces in the PCB but I will run wires to the Fn key.
