Voice's for StreetPilot 7200? (convert from Nuvi voices?)

I downloaded a bunch of cool voices for garmin. Apparently they are NOT compatible with my Kenwood DNX5120 which is a StreetPilot 7200. They are in the voice's folder, but do not show up in the languages section sad

Is there any way to convert these so they will work on a streetpilot?

.vpm

These are the .vpm files, like Dr Nightmare which is available free from the garmin/voices web site. It works great on a Nuvi 255w - But when I put the same file in the voices folder of my Kenwood DNX5120 (StreetPilot 7200) it doesn't even show up in the menu.......

I noticed the .vpm file (liek dr nightmare) is significantly smaller in size vs whats in there from the factory... like Jill TTS (I think it is) is really large, where these are more like 2-8 mb each or something ( I could be wrong, I need to re-check in the morning )
