Interested in x 2 of these new ones, in black if possible?

I bought a pair of the original devices back in December 2017. I have no clue what is needed to update them hardware wise? I would be interested in a pair of the new revision ones if you have them for sale. Thanks :)

EDIT: Just read up about what is needed to be done to the pcb on the older version.

Hardware update instructions from here: https://amiga.robsmithdev.co.uk/instructions (basicly cutting one trace and soldering couple jumper wires to couple new pins).

"
  • Pin 34 on the floppy drive connector (Disk Change) must be connected to Pin 10 on the Arduino
  • Pin 12 on the floppy drive connector (Select Disk B) must be disconnected from Pin 5 on the Arduino and connected to Pin 11 on the Arduino.
    Note you must leave the connection between Arduino Pin 5 and Floppy Connector Pin 16 in place
  • On the Arduino, connect Pin 12 to GND (0v) - this lets the firmware know you have made this modification. Using the ISP to program?
  • Version 1.8 software must be uploaded
"

But yes, I do have parts to build couple more DrawBridge compatible new ones if you need? Would take me about a day to print black cases for them.
