You should not have to uninstall them - I have never done that when doing an upgrade. Usually the best thing to do though it try an upgrade on a test site and see if you run into any problems with your modifications first before doing the upgrade on a live site.

i have the same mod installe about,
but my first preoccupation is if there's any files after the upgrade that will be removed.
I have tryed to upgrade on a test site the 3.8 and i've found some file (clientscript folder) that not exist in the 3.7 version.... :(

I was just about to ask this question, but I think they'll be fine, or so I hope. I'll be making a testvB site then, thanks Lynne.

Yes, there were some new files in the clientscript folder for 3.8 just as there were some new files in the clientscript folder when you went from 3.6 to 3.7.
