Ive downloaded a couple gpl cockpits and the instructions are as follows:
To use, simply copy the file you wish to use into your
\sierra\gpl\cars\cars67\ferrari folder. Once in the directory, rename the
existing fdash.mip to fdash.gplea, then rename our file to fdash.mip. To
return to the (excellent) GPLEA dash, simply rename our file to fdash.gplsf
and change fdash.gplea to fdash.mip.
Sounds easy enough but i only have a ferrari.dat in that directory and
moving that and putting the mip files in there crashes gpl when i enter the
car. Any body know what im supposed to do??? BTW what are sound graphics
updates for gpl that you reccomend???? Any urls would be appreaciated
thanks
keep the ferrari.dat, that should do it.

You need to install the GPLEA Ferrari first.

Bernhard, first of all you need a program such as Doodat which will allow
you to see the contents of all your dat files in GPL , very handy also for
tinkering with tracks . Doodat will also allow you to extract , remove and
add files from and to the dat files so you can extract the fdash.mip and
change it .
Get Doodat at http://www.deviant.btinternet.co.uk/
Cheers
Andrew

KEEP the ferrari.dat. Don't touch it.
Simplest thing to do though is go here

There's one big file that has all the cars, cockpits, chrome roll bars,
2D and 3D wheels. Much simpler.
