Another discovery by Drish (verified and checked by Manveru) :
It is found out what this PLT file is: BMPs with 16 bits color / no compression
There may be just added this header to a PLT and it opened in any graphics program (of course there was deleted the original header and file was renamed to *.BMP)

All 54 bytes
Or maybe they are 2 BMPs in one (8 bits color / internal BG ???palette / one byte for each)
