RNS510 Firmware Upgrade Dealer/Supplier

Gents,
as a lowly MFD2 user, could someone confirm a couple of points please ?
As old as the MFD2 is, one of the things I really like is the blue backlights with red buttons. I can see that the RNS has Red buttons, but does it integrate with the blue colour elsewhere on the dash ?
Secondly, my MFD2 has a Parrot CK3000 Evolution connected via can harness to the sterring wheel buttons and works great. If I went for the RNS, I obviously couldn't afford to get the £300 bluetooth kit fitted for some time, so would the parrot still work straight out of the box so to speak ?
Lastly, according to a VCDS scan my 2005 car is fitted with a 1K0 907 530 E revision Can Gateway. If I got as mentioned a FW1100 (or Darren's special 1200) would that definately not have the battery drain issues as again, at the moment I can't afford another £150-£200 on upgrading the Can gateway over and above the cost of the RNS.
Finally, Darren, how are people paying you, cash or paypal (if it's not too impertinent to ask) ?
Sorry for all the questions gents.

To answer your Questions
1. Not quite sure what you are getting at but the button colours are either Red for VW or Green if it's a Skoda Unit. The remainder of the unit has it's own colour as it is a full colour touch screen so there is no back light to it.
2. The Parrot will work with the MFD3 (i Have an MKi9000 connected to mine via a harness)
3. Any firmware apart from 266X will work without the Battery Drain issue. The new 268X firmware fixes this anyway.
HTH

Bank Transfer Andrew its less hassle,
Ive got the 2680 on disc here if any one wants it FOC but it is available on the net to download so is most of the other firmware and if you look hard enough most of the mapping discs are too.
Every thing is working on mine now Until V7 comes out that is :confused:
