Can I do this manually using unpacking the .mobi and adding the code then repeat OR do I have to use KindleGen?

There's no need to upack the mobi, unless you no longer have the source files. Simply execute KindleGen with the -dont_append_source parameter and the name of the .opf file.
(Kindle Previewer uses KindleGen in the Background.)
If you're "command line challenged," try the following:
1. Make a backup copy of your source files.
2. Download
Kindlegen and extract Kindlegen.exe to the folder that contains the .opf file:
3. Create a text file with Notepad and paste following text into it:
Code:
DEL conversion.log
FOR %%f IN ("*.opf") DO (
kindlegen -dont_append_source "%%f" >> conversion.log
)
Then save it as
kg.cmd. (Make sure that the file has a .cmd extension.)
Double-click
kg.cmd and wait for the .mobi file to appear in the Explorer.
If nothing happens, check conversion.log for error messages.
If you want to give the -c2 parameter a try simply add it before
-dont_append_source:
Code:
DEL conversion.log
FOR %%f IN ("*.opf") DO (
kindlegen -c2 -dont_append_source "%%f" >> conversion.log
)
