Yes, my mod retained the original Classic push rod, I agree the knock kneed look of the XS cables is ugly. It also overloads the hinges and flanges if pilots push on both pedals. (which they sometimes do)
Factory have now taken over my mod and can supply the parts. It is retrofittable but you will need to fit access panels. Not too big a deal.

feature, and why it was abandoned, because my kit came with the (ugly)
cable setup.
Was this part of your tailwheel mod?
Although my Europa is finished, I would still like to see the details
(and maybe it is possible to convert). That starboard external cable and
