ATS and ETS2 mod installation question

[Ethan]

I have mods I want to use for both ATS and ETS2 but I am confused on how it works...
In ATS I made a new profile, did the wizard and the first run. I saved the profile, tried to apply the mods I found, but when I went to load the save, it says incompatible.
I tried again, this time making a new profile, adding the mods and saving it but it says its still incompatible...
whats the proper steps to enable and use mods ingame? for ats and ets2?

The mod you download has to be compatible with the game version you have.
Whether you rollback your game version, or download an updated version of the mod if the author has created one.

Actually you can't use a mod from ets2 to ATS , simply because you can't use GTA 4 mods to SA , now for mod compatibility  , it's actual for an older version probably , but you can see if it would work on new version anyway , for this you need to open the mod and cancel the 3 files you see under the folders like vehicle ,def and ecc. There should be 3 files , one pic and 2 txt

Everyone here is getting confused with what my question is....
My question was how to I ACTIVATE the mod?  Ive tried making a profile, running the first delivery then trying to activate it AND using an existing profile, activating COMPATIBLE mods but on both tries, the saves bot end up say incompatible SAVES

So what you're saying is you can't activate the mods because they aren't compatible with your game version?

Im saying I cant activate the mod because I dont know the process of how to get it to work.
