I have a 98 Fender Jazz which is string through only. I wonder if there is a bridge I can install without any modification to the body that will allow through bridge stringing?
God Bless, Ray

Hipshot, IIRC, also do one, but its special order, or they do a Vintage Bridge that should suit.

Darkstrike is pretty Irish.
Wish I could offer you more but you need to brush up on your knowledge of said subject. 
God Bless, Ray

If my sig only had more room........
Oh, when I did change my bridge on a Fender(former Fender), I used a Kahler, but that did require one or two slight marks to the body.

I can't speak to the quality of these particular bridges but I have the Hipshot D-Tuner which i've had no problems with in the past 5 years, and Hipshot is known for their high quality.

God Bless, Ray | simple, the american deluxe bridges of the same period, or the american "series" bridges post-2000. basically identical, but with extra holes for through-bridge stringing.
