Adding a new cabin + Replacing the GLOBETROTTER XL plate

[Makkebakke]

I want to edit the Volvo FH16 2009 Edition. I’ve already finished a paint job for it, but I now want to replace the Globetrotter XL plate on the cabin. There is a simple way to do this ( https://ets2.lt/en/forums/topic/question/ ), but I don’t want to replace ALL trucks of this type in the game, only my own (It’d be a bit weird to pull up to the dealership and see all trucks with my company’s plate on the cabin).

Now here’s my idea: I add a new cabin, just as how you’d add a paintjob. I keep most of the SII intact, so the normal cabin is used, but I add a new variable in so a new texture is read, one that includes my edited plate. My question is, how do I do this? Cabins don’t normally specify texture files, because all cabins use one and the same.

If any modders can help me figure this out, it would be much appreciated.
