 :)Hello!
I am in the process of converting the Revell  Type IX C Late back to the early U-154 as well.  A lot of changes will need to be done to do this.
1. 10.5cm Gun installed front deck.
2. 3.7 cm gun installed aft deck. 
3. Entire different deck
4. Converted Trum back to early single 2.0cm gun installed.
These are just the main changes needed to convert the Revell Model back to the earlier U-154.
I am working on these right now.  The deck is being designed and made as we speak. Major changes there. 
Good luck with your build and the future diorama. Sounds like a neat project!
Regards,
Dan

Had the daughter's family (2 grandchildren) over and had a good Easter dinner.
Yes, outstanding work on both wolfpack articles.
Thanks again to you and everyone that helped you out.

To everyone

Been reviewing the kits and upgrades. Wow a lot of stuff out there.

Now with the U505 kit and upgrades available, I have been reviewing my mirror idea. I guess that now I need to change the mirror idea. My main problem is budget, LOL. Due to the fact that my parents took me on the U-505, then went myself, then took my wife and children, I really want to try to build a detailed U-505. Now to buy another set of detail kits for this.... Well there goes a budget.

Well back to planning what kits to buy.

Happy Easter to everyone.
