sadly your choices are limited.

either...

make sure there is someone at the colo to help in case you hose rtc.

send them a digium card to toss in it.

buy your own box to be colo'd and mod it before it goes.

(i'm sure there are other methods)
but if you can't do the above, i think you will be in for a rough 
ride.  because, when something goes wrong, and it will... you'll 
be in the same boat.

good luck
