You can add in your theme app/design/fronted/PackageTheme/YourTheme/Aheadworks/Autorelated/web/css, and copy the CSS file from app/code/Aheadworks/Autorelated/view/frontend/web/css, and there you can change it.
For edit in LESS file, you must add _module.less file in this path app/code/Aheadworks/Autorelated/view/frontend/web/css/source and you can also copy the CSS content from CSS files in _module.less and you can edit.
After that you must run php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
Best Practice:
You should not edit/modify files within pub/* or vendor/* directory. Pub is for deployment and vendor is for default structure, which you override via your template or custom modules. Instead:
- create a new theme inside app/design/frontend/vendor/yourTheme/. You can use Blank or Luma theme. You can also create new theme which inherites from Blank (inheritance is defined within theme.xml). If you are already using some theme then skip this step.
- edit .less within your theme so the changes stay visible and don't get replaced when clearing the cache or upgrading the system.
- Use grunt to compile your .less into deployment files.
- You can also setup sourcemaps to pin point your styling within the theme .less files so you can be more productive.
I hope this will help
