    You would need something like this : http://www.daz3d.com/michael-4-skins-auto-converter-for-genesis-2-male-s

    Genesis 2 Male does not have M4 UV sets as standard.

    This won't give you the UVs. It converts presets made for M4 to .duf made for G2M but you still need the "M4 for G2M" (listed as required) product to have the UVs

    As long as you have the M4UV you can just load M4 apply the skin and save as a Material preset then from where you saved it you can load it onto G2M. The Auto convertor makes things a bit easier but isn't necessary.

    Yes, the "M4 for G2M" product is needed, the other is optional (makes the process easier). If you don't use the auto-converter, you should load up Michael 4, apply the texture you want to use, save as a materials preset. Then load G2M, apply that materials preset, and change the UV to Michael 4.

    When you have G2M loaded, go to the Surfaces pane, and look for 'UV Set' and change that to M4, then load your M4 skin.

    Have you tried that?
