Roman Props Graflex Conversion?

So I'm considering buying a "flashgun 5" (ESB version) from roman props, but I really like the look of the sequel trilogy graflex, I'm aware that roman sells this version, but the clamp doesn't have the "graflex" stamping on it, which I know is screen accurate. (Also, buying a glass eye is cheaper than buying another clamp)

So my question is, if I buy the ESB version, how difficult would it be to remove the second "red button" and replace it with a glass eye? Does it just unscrew? And if this is possible, is there a specific "eye" that i need to purchase? I'm not super concerned with 1/1 screen accuracy, i just want to make sure I buy a part thats compatible.
 
The second red button just screws on, just like the glass eye would. I would email Roman to see if he can sell you one of his glass eyes with the exposed brass for the sequel trilogies separately.

Thanks! I noticed that roman does have separate listings for (as far as I can tell) every variation of the glass eye. Do you happen to own one of his graflexes? HackinSpock said that he isn't able to unscrew the button on his.

Yes I have a Luke ESB (Flashgun 5) from Roman. I can confirm the red button most definitely screws on and off.
