If you can get the 65C02, you can use EPROMs for the other three upgrade
chips, provided you have (or can get access to) a burner. Their content
is floating around the net. Although it must be mentioned that for the
character ROM, you need either a Motorola 68764 EPROM (fairly obscure
and unsupported by many burners), or you need to build an adapter. For
the other two ROMs, you can use standard 2764s.

The NTSC IIe takes a standard 2732 CharGen while the PAL IIe takes a
2764.
You would only need a 68764 if wou want both original and MouseText
character sets available at the same time on an NTSC IIe (and you
would need to add a switch).

Or if you want to use a NTSC mainboard in a PAL case and keep the
switchable font + keyboard.

But you are right, I got it mixed up insofar as it isn't necessary for
the "normal" case
