It's too easy to make a big mess with mods you don't actually want or need.

and removing all mods that are unstable / unfinished / useless / not working for whatever reason. Other types of files I do not need to access or work with much, for now anyway, so I just try to be very conservative and install only well made, HQ mods which I have tested etc. The game uses that information and ignores the other handling meta files, no need to delete or remove them. I do a lot of vehicle tuning using handling meta files, so to make it easier and quicker I just raid all of the separate dlc packs for the handling info and copy+paste it all into the one main handling meta file in update > update.rpf > common > data > ta I have not had time to practice with it but I understand it's fairly straight forward to either code or record functions, even like keystrokes and mouse-clicks and then be able to make them into macro type automated scripts that run within your own. Making your own script in autohotkey is an option. Car mods are all different, but if you stick to just a few modders that use defined paths like tk mods or yca mods then it helps keep things simple.

So instead of running all over the place installing 12 cars, you just place what you want within the package installer and have it configured to know where everything needs to be, like what files to place and where to place them, sorta thing. zip archive for use with mods install of say addon vehicles, no replace. The idea I think would be to create just one. One would be using the open iv package installer, but I have not had time to study how that works yet. IDK enough to answer, but it does get very messy and there are ways to help with that.
