MODS
there are number's of different kinds of mods for SA-MP.
Guns. Vehicles. Characters. Clothes. Maps.
all the good good. /gewd
CAR MODS
most car mods can be installed using San Andreas Mod Installer (SAMI) or with IMGTool 2.0 .
you can download mods from such places as "GTAGarage" or "The GTA Place". (you can google those. /gewd )
INSTALLING MODS
if you are using SAMI to install Car mods, its pretty simple. few clicks and done.
the instructions very self-explanitory when u run it.
IMGTool on the other hand requires some searching, but is used to install any mod possible.
when you download your mod, it will give you some files.
Car mods have .dff and .txd files. i will be using those in this tutorial.
IMG Tool 2.0
Step 1: open IMGTool.

if you are installing any mod other than Car mods, this tutorial will help.
SAMI 1.1
Step 1: open SAMI. install .NET Framework 1.1 (u need it to start the program.)

Step 2: open SAMI again. Click "no" on the update pop-up.

Step 3: Click "Install Mod". if it does not auto-detect your GTA directory, browse to the folder. For mod location, if its in the .rar file still, just browse to it. if its in a folder, x-mark "Folder" and browse to the folder.

Step 4: Click "Continue". click "Continue" again. In "Custom Vehicle Name", type the name of your car, then click "Install."

Note: THIS DOES NOT CHANGE NAME OF THE CAR INGAME. ONLY THE MOD.
Step 5: When done, you can exit and install another mod, or click start up GTA. your choice.

Note: some files might require another file rather than gta3.img.
Note 2: if you install 1 mod on the 1 file, then another mod on that same file, the most recent mod will be there. (This could make the game crash. DO NOT WANT.)
If you do not like my tutorial, or your just find a video tutorial better, there are numbers of videos on youtube that will help. /gewd
