I've modified a Tektro R556 that way, using R800A bolts. Silver's are the same brake with a different logo. I might have even been the one who first posted that over on the 650B list. It's a little tedious, but nothing major. The bolts have two different sized threaded bits on them as well as a little set screw. It takes a little fiddling to find the sweet spot where they pivot freely, but don't have too much play.
