David_C,

Try JVB Digital (http://www.jvb.nl/digital/). They sell the mod kit, as well as do the modification by themselves. According to the website, the Do-It-Yourself mod seems to be easy to do.

I think the shipping charge is pretty low if you order multiple DVDs. The cost is fixed at 90 francs, so it's normally cheaper than the other retailers if you order 2 or more items.

4% PAL speedup has nothing to do with players, but with how the DVD is encoded (25 fps for PAL against 24 (29.97) fps for NTSC). So, no matter which player you choose, it always exists.
