Help A Newbie With Installing Cyanogen Mod On Moto E 2nd Gen LTE

I have been using my Motorola Moto E 2nd Gen. LTE phone (SKU is XT1527) with the stock ROM for about a year now. I'm new to modding phones, and I have some trepidation in installing Cyanogenmod 13 on my phone. I'm willing to do it, but I do not know what to do and how to do it. I would like assistance in modding my phone, and I will provide details if needed.

I've searched for my phone on this site, and I have found this thread on this forum:

The part that confuses me is trying to find the right modem and/or baseband (although it is referred to as firmware in the thread) files that was given by the link provided in the thread:
