I'd suggest the "Rework Eliminiator" K2 Option Bypass Headers:

     http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6372

They work very well.  You build the option bypass headers, and then when 
you build your K2, you build it as though you are installing every 
option.  Many options require that you remove a component or two from 
the main board, so you just don't install those components at all during 
the build.  For the options you don't actually install, plug in the 
option bypass header.  Later, when you add an option, simply unplug the 
bypass header and plug in the option.
