It did have a holiday in Solms before I bought the DMR unit though, and any such camera is treated to a firmware upgrade automatically. The firmware is more important than the contacts - no amount of good contact will make the camera work with the DMR if the firmware in the R8 isn't up to the job.

My '98 R8 also has yellow/green LEDs and, like many others of this vintage, it had to go to Solms for new contacts and a firmware update before it would talk to the DMR. IIRC It was away for about 8 weeks (in 2006).
