Is there a Kadee model that is designed to drop in the coupler boxes of older Athearn geeps, F7's, etc. Without having to do any hacking? I currently use No 5's but they are not a good fit.

They don't recommend #5's anyway, because they won't be electrically isolated and can cause shorts between the frames of units. here's their whole conversion list.
