There's one on ebay right now (item 230183969927) complete with the
cabling and connectors to the chassis. No cables connecting the board
to the breakout box, though.

You need the IR GFX set, the sirius card, cables to back panel, cables
to breakout box and the breakout box. The breakout box has some logic
inside so you can't just use the sirius card.

In my case, I have everything except the cabling between the Sirius
breakout box and the back panel. There was a guy on nekochan.net that
had one for sale, but he wanted to charge me $300 + international
shipping. I think I know why he still has it for sale after saying it
was available over a year ago...

Sirius (Card only) + IR (or RE2) is a perfectly valid configuration.
How many useful things one can do with that is a different matter, but
I think the glossy papers also did offer Sirius for Challenge systems
(so even Sirius alone).
Currently I have Sirius Video with BOB on a RE2 at home, I just don't
have the cables complete right now. The following is a hinv of the
machine without BOB installed. If the GFX-Sirius bridge or the BOB are
present the installed options are shown in the "Sirius video:" line.
