I want to modify the Halo 72 v2 but I'm unsure how to open it. Are there any guides available on how to do that?

The situation involves snap lock mounting, which increases the risk of damaging the outer shell. You may need a spudger or guitar pick, or a plastic tool to insert between the case halves, similar to how you'd work on a laptop. I’d only risk the switches, not the keyboard’s underside, as improper opening can harm the keyboard’s appearance. If you still want to disassemble the keyboard, check the video here: https://youtu.be/iRiiGQpNtGI?t=206. Pay attention to the clips on the bottom half of the keyboard—these are what I’m referring to. This process isn’t recommended for beginners, as it can be tricky.

It seems acceptable to leave it as is, it appears there are many foam layers present.

It has a decent quantity of foam, which means the tape mod wouldn't add much extra support to the sound profile. In its current state, it's only worth doing if you want to reduce or eliminate some of the foam for more flexibility while typing. The main concern is whether the modification will affect the case, as Lutfij warned about potential damage if you attempt to open and change it. Ultimately, it depends on your preference for sound quality versus comfort.
