You need to bring them into the format

lon,lat, "Comment"

and then use the MakeOV2.exe to , well , make them into an OV2 file. Then you need to assign a 256 color bitmap it.

Done.

I would potentially have a use for 2m and 70cm voice repeaters as a POI file - though I don't operate vehicle mobile at the moment.

If you can put in the comments the callsign, the receive frequency and transmit split (as I've lost track of the channel IDs - I could just about cope with R and RB, but not the latest stuff) and CTCSS letter (or, more usefully CTCSS frequency - I can just about remember that C is 77Hz), that would make it even more use.
