The simpleLOD plugin adds Level of Detail functionality to objects. You can either show/hide an object based on a specified distance to the user, or swap out the model with a lower detail one. You can swap out the target object with anything with an object ID, however. Add the component to each individual high-detail item you would like--by default it will simply show and hide the target object but copy and paste the intended LOD object ID into the component's 'LOD ID' space to add the LOD functionality. There is also a toggle to temporarily disable the LOD swap functionality at any time.

Do not add this component to the LOD objects, only add it to the target object. It is recommended to position the LOD model in the proper spot before adding the ID to the target object, you can also try parenting the LOD object to the target using an additional plugin. In especially large spaces, turn on ‘Always Load’ on both the target object and LOD objects to ensure the plugin runs.
