🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a simple texture replacement, just drop the files into your Data folder and enable the mod in your launcher.
If you use a mod manager like FOMM, you can install it with one click—just make sure it's active in your load order.
Check if you have any other Pip-Boy retextures installed—they might conflict, so only use one at a time.
