Just plug the chips in.  That was the official Radio Shack mod, unless 
the CoCo had a really low serial number (in which case, plug the chips 
in and see if 32k is recognized by BASIC, if not, swap out the MoBo).

Coco was a piece of cake compared to the Mod 1 (I did and do run both).

You had to admire the way perfectly innocent words were mugged, ravaged,
stripped of all true meaning and decency, and then sent to walk the
gutter for Reacher Gilt, although "synergistically" had probably been a
whore from the start.                 -- Terry Pratchett, _Going Postal_
