The RF modulator is not needed - in fact, it won't even fit because the surface mount parts in the way. The only way to use a modulator would be to remove the surface mounted parts. That would be a bit foolish because the ICS64's video output is quite amazing due to the RF modulator replacement circuitry (the surface mounted parts).
The R-L plug is designed for a 3 pin JST plug to a 3.5mm (or similar) stereo jack cable. That can be either mounted to the C64 case or just passed through an opening. You need a stereo SID chip setup, with the extra SID output connected to the extra "L" pad.
You can use the shield or not. Most people don't.
Nice build - it looks great!
