I ordered the RNS510 on Friday from a British seller on Ebay - actually Lithuania it seems.... Was very impressed with the delivery Monday morning, few aussie businesses achieve that speed - here is the log:

Thanks Sharkie, I might take you up on that when the time comes - still a couple of weeks until my van gets here
Sunny is helping me put in some wheelchair mods and has offered to assist with the RNS as well, but we will need some coding assist for sure.
I also got the genuine rear view camera with the guidance lines (7E0907441) - apparently from the same guy (different ebay seller) as the tracking log was identical....can't seem to find any install or wiring guides for that one though....it definitely needs coding to work.
EDIT: Sharkie do you have access to this forum to get the documentation that was attached?
RVC Plus installed

After reading that post I nearly threw away my ability to connect a factory unit what a load of rigmarole , I cannot believe that its so complicated I will repeat the Chinese head unit plugs straight in to factory harness with Can Bus and the camera works out of the box no coding either . But from what I have read the RVC factory has a dedicated plug point in the roof at the rear on a T5 so no splicing required hopefully .Sharkie might get his liquid payment after all .
Okay I am retracting the last comment , don,t you just love YouTube found several very informative videos on fitting the RVC to T5 Multi's so now I will attack Paradox's van with a renewed knowledge !! Oh and it is still off to Sharkie for coding , interesting thought why don't car makers make their cars like a PC put something new in and it comes up with a message that tells you its upgrading , I suppose it could be done via smart phone as a WI FI tether .

Paradox's MFD is the new colour one, looks awesome. RNS510 and RVC now all coded up and working perfectly.
If somebody wants to do a RVC install on a Multivan, talk to Sunny, he did a great job with the install. My contribution in coding was easy by comparison I think.

Yep, all coded and working great many thanks to both Sunny and Sharkie for their assistance, both did a more professional job than I would expect the dealers to do....The colour MFD is pretty good, although as I am a first timer I didn't know it was a new feature until Sharkie pointed it out....
The mirror image on the RVC threw me for a bit until I realised it is supposed to be like that....ie same as looking in the rear vision mirror
Does anyone know if there is any way to get a digital speed readout on the MFD at the same time as the Nav lane info? you really come to rely on the digital speed graphic rather than the dial, but currently can't use it and the Nav screen at the same time.....
When did the colour MFD come out? Is it something that can be upgraded to?
Its a MY14 upgrade and not available on base Comfortline FWDs. Comfortline 4Motion and Highlines only.
Like anything an upgrade is possible, though it would be very expensive, think $1500+ and the added benefit would be none. It adds no functionality other than displaying what is there in the white MFD in a prettier fashion. Not worth doing as an upgrade in my opinion.

Hi
At the start of this post you showed an RCD510 installed in a T5.2 Multivan. I was wondering what model that unit was as I have read on another post that in order for the steering wheel controls to work you have to use the 5K0035190A as opposed to the 5K0035190. Did you have any problems with the steering wheel controls?
Thanks
