1. Add/Replace cars automatically by using the San Andreas Mod Installer V1.1 (Download)

San Andreas Mod Installer (SAMI) allows you to install mods and custom vehicles made for GTA San Andreas without having to edit the game files yourself. SAMI practically does all of the work for you, which makes mod installing (and uninstalling) very simple.

2. Add/Replace cars manually by using the IMG Tool 2.0 (Download)

This Howto shows how to add or replace original cars with a new car which you have downloaded. To do that we are using the "IMG Tool".

You need:
IMG Tool v2.0

Preparations:
download a favored car from our file database
copy the .dff- and .txd-files to your desktop or another place where you can find them
open the readme file
Now we can start:
start IMG Tool
File -> Open -> C:/Programs/Rockstar Games/GTA San Andreas/models/gta3.img
Find the files of the car, which you want to replace. In our case we want to replace the Uranus:
press F2
enter Uranus
Backup these files. In our case you have to backup uranus.dff and uranus.txd:
Right click on the already marked files
Extract to a directory, you prefer
You have backed up the files and now you are ready to replace them:
mark uranus.dff
Right click -> replace
select new uranus.dff
mark uranus.txd
Right click -> replace
select new uranus.txd
By using this method you avoid a bug, which appears when you are using "delete".

Fine-Tuning:
The car is in the game but we have to do some more fine-tuning. In order to do this, we replace several lines of files, which are located in the data folder of your GTA SanAndreas. Normally, the new lines are mentioned in the readme file, which can be found in the downloaded file. Usually, you have to replace a line in handling.cfg, carcols.dat and vehicles.ide. For further informations, you have to take a look in the readme file because there is a more detailed introduction of the process.
