Contact the author via the GitHub link on the flows page for that node.
He may let you raise a PR or do the changes their self.
Otherwise fork it and make your own version.
As a quick hack, you can of course edit the src code of that node in your file system and restart node-red (but if there are future updates, your changes will be lost)
