Ok all, need a little help after updating my Highline to BMW spec parts.

I managed to get a MKIII BMW Sat Nav drive off the evil bay quite cheap. It's been a bit of a saga getting here but it landed today and promptly refused to work. Now normally I'd have sent it straight back but I did a little investigation and found that I could probably get it back up and running, which I did, eventually.

So, I reloaded the firmware using an image from this site - http://neiloakley.com/ as it was the only one I could find that was in this apparently critical MODE 2/FORM 1 format, but it did the job and the sat nav sprung back into life and updated to v3-1/63. However, I have a couple of problems that I am hoping can be resolved in one go...

I have this rather tacky load screen:

and I also have sat nav instructions being given to me in Russian (or similar).

I'm hoping that some kind soul has an update disc that will have a lovely MG badge for a load screen and that will also reinstate a more recognisable voice too, but any help would be appreciated.
