Steffen,

as far as I heard from Leica, changing the dichroics to hard coated ones 
is not possible - they are too thick for the standard holder. It 
probably also introduces a shift due to the thicker material, so the 
emission beam will go somewhere else. You would need to do it on your 
own risk, I guess.

cheers,
Michael
