EFIS Voyager G2 - moved to Europe from SA

I have moved from SA to Europe (Netherlands) and need to get the Navigational Data etc sorted. Please can someone on the forum assist..

Oddysy2.bin - am running V3002. V3007 is available from MGL Europe. Should V3007 be loaded? and is it valid for MGL G2 (SA website suggests V3002 is latest). Need to get the 8,33 frequencies sent to the V16 radio - doesn't seem to be working on current MGL firmware version?

Navidata - done with a subscription - working
Vector Maps - downloaded Europe Vector Base Map.exe and extracted file VMAP.evd - is this correct and will it work on G2?
Terrain - was looking for .DEM files? Have downloaded TERRAINL.zip (from https://www.mglavionics.co.za/g3terrain.html) and extracted TERRAINL.DAT (am worried this is for G3 only?) then is it possible to load High Res Terrain files to G2 (for Europe?)

Thanks in advance

Is there an Europe based forum that I can ask the same questions?
I have looked but cannot find anything.

Thanks in advance

Might be good news for you:

Our Mapmaker2 application can now convert OpenFlightMaps Slippy times to our raster map format - I am still finalizing this but will be available in a few days.
There does not seem to be a possibility of a direct download of the tiles but you can download the tiles for a region in a zip file - Mapmaker then uses that download.
Quality of the final maps as displayed on the EFIS is very good.

Navidata for Europe - best source is to get a PocketFMS subscription at this point.
