In the bundle.exe define a string Variable element and use bal:Overridable='yes'. Then in MsiPackage use a MsiProperty element to pass the value of the variable into the msi. At that point follow the examples that you found to pass the msi property to your CA, depending on the type of CA.

Define a variable in your bundle, detect the culture in your BA, and set this variable (or use one of the Burn built-in language variables). You could take different approaches here, but the result is that you use the variable in your InstallCondition to determine which of the msi packages will
