you can but need to remove cross bar on end of spindle.Can't remember of hand if loose ratchet though due to cog difference as a while since checked!
The S mag extra plate works and use a mono mag kit which turns it into one similar to 535 mag as that runs a mono mag and no brake block parts
You could ''static mag'' it. Done it to my 545 and 555 and worked for me. I glued a small washer on the inside of the side plate and attached the required number of magnets to the washer. Trial and error on the magnet number and away you go.
I wanted to turn a pair of 525 gs reels into a magged version as i suffer from Rheumatoid Arthritis in my hands now days and find "thumbing" it hard so i mono magged them,easy job it took me about 15 mins each reel,mono`s supplied by Russ at Blakdog and they turned out perfect.If you need help there`s a comprehensive post detailing each step on his website just for that reel.A quick shot of how the reels look in action
