As I've stated before, I've owned two different Golden MicroMax units with ground balance modifications. I was asked to provide pictures. I said I would dig through my archives and dig some out.
Here is my first one. It has the ground balance modification located out side the box. It was useful but ugly.

I have looked all over for a picture of my second one. I had bought another one and sent that one off to Paul(CA) and he did the internal mod. I was supprised to see that I didn't even include a picture when i sold it on the classifieds here: http://www.findmall.com/read.php?44,348877,348877#msg-348877 since that was back in 2006 I don't have my emails or PM anymore.
However, knowing that Paul did the mod for me, I looked for some of his work and located this picture where he fixed someone else's mod attempt. You can read the whole story here : http://www.findmall.com/read.php?17,643296,664325 On this one, he moved the gb to the bottom of the box and filled in the extra hole they drilled in the faceplate with a light. Mine had the ground balance where the Threshold pot is, and the threshold pot was on the bottom. I'll continue to look for a picture.

Conclusion of story....if one is willing for a bottom, side or back placement of the pot, there is room in the box.
