Copying an EPROM?

I have just bought 3 high end 1 GB data loggers for motorsport usage. One has a current EPROM in it that allows GPS track mapping, the other two do not. Given I am an idiot with stuff like this, does this sound feasible?

Open the case and see if the EPROM is socketed. If it is, see what number is on it, if any. Otherwise photograph it and post it on a "Geek" forum (which one?). Hope my EPROM writer that I keep meaning to throw out, a Stag PP39 will take a chip. Copy the later chip and burn to a new one. Update the other two.

Alternatively pay a LOT of dosh for the makers to do something no doubt very similar.

My PP39 has only two sockets, like in the second photo in this .pdf file.

Thanks.
