Some Mods are made by folks that don't know what they are doing.
Sadly they find their way onto the web.
Likewise with forums.
Most mod pages have a Caveat about this --- So mod-er beware

Example from a popular mod page

"Before you do anything, please read this.! The modifications are not
verified and tested by us, so if you try some of the articles on your own
equipment, it's on your own risk. Performing modifications of some equipment
may be a violation of local laws. If you have any doubts, do not perform the
modification."
