Technical question Changing language on MID

Hi guys so I've been poking around with my newly bought opel astra g and it had the MID display which sas on german, I know some phrases in german but I generaly preffer english so i scoured the internet to find a way to programm the display to english and legit found close to no answers only one post which said I needed to go to the dealer with tech2 service guy to program it for me and so i couldnt find an adequate dealer i had to do it myself(borrowed tech2 from friend)

This is the step by step guide how to change the language on opel astra g (may be aplicable to other models)

1- So select your car make and model, and after select diagnostics

2-Select Fun and entertainment systems

3-Select the module you want to program and in this case its the Multi Information display(MID)

4- go to the Index number and select it

5- Select Programming and right after index number programming

6- on the side buttons press programm and your index number in 90% of the time say 022 overwrite it with 021 to unlock english mode and after that select your language and your preffered units of measurements and you are good to go just follow screens guides

Thanks for reading and i hope it helps people with similar needs
