If you are in control of the entire 1.2.3.0/24, this should be enough to
set the delegation for the /24 to your preferred name servers:

&3.2.1.in-addr.arpa:1.2.3.4:ns1.customerdns.com:3600
&3.2.1.in-addr.arpa:3.4.5.32:ns2.customerdns.com:3600
&3.2.1.in-addr.arpa:3.4.5.31:ns1.customerdns.net:3600
&3.2.1.in-addr.arpa:1.2.3.254:ns2.customerdns.net:3600

This also implies your netblock owner (RIPE, ARIN, APNIC, or any
intermediary) must set these four name servers for that specific reverse
DNS zone.
