Doing some searching, N629JB also returned with a cabin refresh on 1/28.
N633JB arrived at LCQ on 1/28
N659JB arrived at LCQ on 1/29
N775JB (Veterans scheme) left LCQ on 1/29. Although the flight load shows a capacity of 150, it could be possible that Sabre hasn't updated yet since it returned yesterday. It's also possible that it did not receive a cabin mod as it had not been at LCQ for the typical length of time needed for a cabin mod.
So, there's at least 5 that we know of currently at LCQ.
I haven't been looking at SAL, but N661JB arrived 1/23.

I have family members flying on 775JB today. Can confirm she is still in 150 seat configuration.

And promptly left LCQ on 2/3, so it definitely wasn't there for a new cabin.
N653JB returned from SAL on 2/2, confirmed to have new cabin.
N779JB (Bluericua) arrived at LCQ on 2/4
N595JB arrived at SAL on 2/4
N661JB returned from SAL on 2/6 so no cabin refresh there.
N638JB arrived at SAL on 2/7
N621JB arrived at BFM on 2/8 (paint?)
N593JB returned from BFM on 2/8 (paint?)

N779JB (Bluericua) left LCQ on 2/13, after 9 days, so no cabin work was done on this one.
N633JB (Brooklyn Nets) left LCQ on 2/13, after 16 days, highly unlikely that it received cabin work, and the inventory still shows 150 and not 162.
N657JB arrived at LCQ on 2/14
N715JB did a test flight at SAL on 2/18 and then flew to JFK. Since I didn't see it go to SAL a week and a half ago, it probably wasn't there for long. Inventory still shows 150, so I don't think cabin work was done on it.
N593JB was sent to SAL on 2/19

Interesting, so they're still doing Phase I even though they've started Phase 2?
EDIT: I figured out why. LCQ is doing Phase 2 while SAL is still doing Phase 1 although they will be switching over soon.

I thought perhaps the older half of the fleet (503-665) would get Phase 1, while the newer A320s (703-834... with the newer interiors and touchscreen flight attendant panel) would get Phase 2. I certainly hope Phase 2 goes fleet-wide.

Waiting for phase 2 to be ready would have delayed the whole process significantly. They would just be starting modifications now. Better to have 20 planes already flying with a better product as they go through their regular maintenance check schedule rather than dragging out the process. The phase 1 is very similar to what is already flying on the A321s so it is actually just fine to have phase 1 for most routes within the US. Phase 2 will be most noticed for international flights where the internet connection will work instead of cutting out once over the ocean.
