As above, is there a plug and play decoder set of the above Kato models?

I used a TCS K0D8

 

you can take a look at this picture I found on internet, i needed to perform some small workings on the decoder side

I had to fix the image links. It pretty much covers everything.

I had also an issue with decoder contacts, this happen because the decoder is wider than the lightboard you are replacing and it sit on top of the plastic guide at the end of the chassis

 

I used a 24awg copper cable soldered on the decoder pickup to improve contact
