I found it on this Japanese website and used Google translate to read it:

I haven't tried it yet as I just recently got my LS430W... I'm also a bit nervous about installing firmware. If anybody is brave enough to try it, let me know your results...

If it ain't broke don't mess with it!

Thanks for the FW for some emergency/modification etc, but I agree totally with REyewitness, not worth flashing a perfectly working LS430W just for maybe some improved compass display. (too risky)
