Introduction
In this post, I'll be detailing how magic slots are created, how they work and what they can do, as well as any commonly asked questions about them. This guide should give you the basics of how these slots work, and will hopefully be a resource for anyone looking for assistance with these slots. For current working glitches (dupes, GCTF, etc.), see the Working Glitches Thread.
FAQ
What makes a magic slot useful? How is it different from merging?
Magic slots are useful mainly for changing already modded aspects of vehicles, or fixing certain aspects of vehicles. While merging is used to create new modded vehicles by transferring the modifications from pre-existing vehicles.
Can I use my magic slot to add Benny's Wheels to my Non Modded Vehicle?
No, they cannot add wheels that aren't already on the vehicle. You can only change Benny's/F1 wheels if they're already applied, and you cannot change between categories (i.e. Benny's Originals to Bespoke).
Why doesn't my magic slot work? I stored it in my apartment garage!
If you store your magic slot into slots 1–5, they have the tendency to not work as desired. This is due to how those garages handle vehicles vs. how slots added later with DLCs are handled. This is why I say to push your BMX into garages 6–10 after receiving it.
What can I add and change with my magic slot?
You can change liveries, wheels (only between categories as stated before), license plate, window tint, and horn.
The Basics
A magic slot is a glitched vehicle slot made from storing a BMX bike onto an apartment vehicle slot via certain GCTF and duplication glitches. These magic slots can be used for several things such as:
- Accessing hidden liveries
- Cleaning scratched cars
- Making blank plates that can be used for dirty dupes
However, utilizing all these features requires separate glitches in order to fully use them. I'll go over each one in this post.
Important: Magic slots should only be used to change aspects of your car, as cars on magic slots revert to stock after game restarts.
Moving Your Magic Slot
Before we get onto using your magic slot, we need to learn how to move them to different garages. Simply driving a magic slot into an empty garage will cause it to lose the magic attributes.
To get around this: The garage you want it to go to has to be completely full. Once it is full, simply drive in, accept the alert, and swap it with any vehicle.
Placing Vehicles on Your Magic Slot
The best way to place vehicles onto your magic slot is to duplicate the car you want on top of it using whichever current duplication glitch is out (check the Working Glitches Thread for active methods), change what is needed (see Quick/Full Flipping and Clean Interiors below), and then dupe back to the original spot that the car came from. The vehicle you should be duplicating over is the magic slot vehicle.
Quick and Full Flipping
Quick Flipping is the easiest and simplest way to utilize your magic slot. The main caveat is that you can only change your wheels within the category applied (if you have Benny's wheels applied already)—nothing more, nothing less. It's referred to as quick flipping because it can be done within a few minutes minimum.
Next gen note: When told to disconnect internet, replace that step by opening NetCut on your PC, cutting off your internet when you would normally disconnect, pause, and go to Story Mode. There, wait for the load circle to go away, resume your internet via NetCut, and go back online.
Full magic slot flipping is a bit more complicated but offers more options. You can change:
- Liveries
- Horns
- Wheels (only within the category applied)
- Window tints
- Interior colors
- Lights
- License plates
A full tutorial on full flipping can be found here. For flipping interiors using magic slot with NetCut, see this video. (Next gen disconnect steps apply.)
Livery Info
To properly get the liveries you want, you need to understand how certain liveries transfer. Each modification has a number ID—for example, the Blue Tartan livery on the Oppressor MK II is #27. Flipping vehicle liveries will cause the livery to switch to the matching ID. Flipping an Oppressor MK II with the Blue Tartan livery onto the Chernobog, for example, will give the Chernobog the Galaxy livery.
The best vehicle to use for liveries is the Maxwell Vagrant, because the livery IDs go all the way to #30, making it able to unlock the majority of hidden liveries on vehicles. The Livery Shenanigans spreadsheet shows each vehicle with a hidden livery ID if you want to see which vehicles have hidden liveries. Tip: When using the LSC menu as reference, add 1 to the livery ID (e.g. "None" is LSC option 1 but livery ID 0).
Wheel Info
Wheels work slightly differently. Benny's rims are flipped via the Sports / Sports Chrome category rims. Both rims have a corresponding Sports/Sports Chrome rim. You cannot flip to a different category of rim that you don't have—for example, you cannot change from Benny's Bespoke to Benny's Originals.

Clean Interiors Solo with Magic Slot (Mansion Dupe Method)
Based on the new car duplication glitch at the mansion, here’s an easy solo method to use the magic slot to swap wheels, windows, plates, and the interior color of your cars. No NetCut or PC required—on PS5 you unplug the modem; on other platforms follow your usual disconnect steps for the dupe.

Steps
- Duplicate the car whose interior you want to wipe/clean on top of your magic slot.
- Duplicate the car with the interior you want to transfer on top of the car you just duplicated on the magic slot.
- In the workshop part, as soon as you make the change to the vehicle, switch to Franklin in Story Mode.
- PS5: Unplug the network cable from your modem (not from the console).
- Wait for the orange circle to stop spinning, plug the cable back in, and join a new invite-only session.
If there's anything I missed or failed to mention, let me know so I can add it here. Hopefully this helps those unfamiliar with magic slots.
