🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder and enable the mod in your launcher.
If you're using a mod manager like FOMM, you can install it directly and it will handle the file placement.
Check if you have other radio retextures installed to avoid conflicts.
