Basicly, open up map in WE, press F12 for import manager, import the skin downloaded, change the name to over-ride the model.

Although its not really about importing the skin into the map, you may want to take a look at this if you want to use the unit otherwise. Since the skin over-rides the base model, you cant use two different ones (for example a regular grunt and a skinned grunt) in the same map without some extra work. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/3d-m ... ins-11119/
If using this method you turn the skin into a model so will have to use this tutorial instead of the above to import a skin. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/3d-m ... els-32237/

Hope this answers your question.
