Main series
Volume 1
The Heisei Holmes (Manga: 1)
The very first, long before Kaitou Kid himself stepped into the world of Detective Conan, is the inclusion of the amusement park Tropical Land as the setting for Shinichi Kudo's and Ran Mouri's date right from the get-go - just like it was in its role as the background of Kaito Kuroba's and Aoko Nakamori's date in Chapter 4 from Magic Kaito Volume 1. Contrary to Magic Kaito, Tropical Land became a recurring location in Detective Conan and a magnet for all things murderous in nature.
The Great Detective Turned Small (Manga: 2)
When Ran Mouri is cornering the shrunken Shinichi Kudo about his name, one of the books behind him is Magic Kaito Volume 1, clearly identifiable by its name, the volume number and the diamond symbol with Kaito Kid's white tophat above it on the spine of the book.
From Third-Rate to Great Detective (Manga: 6)
Look closely at Professor Hiroshi Agasa's pile of scraps when he's searching for the bow-tie he made for Conan Edogawa - besides some other interesting stuff, there's one of the RZ-04 mini robots who chased Kaitou Kid once in Chapter 9 (Magic Kaito Volume 2, Chapter 3) of his own series, sleeping soundly.
Volume 10
The Burning Body (Manga: 96)
Conan Edogawa, irritated at still being small and having to visit the children's floor of Beika Library, finds two books, titled "Kaitō Boy" (= Magic Kaito) and "Samurai Shōnin", which is Yaiba. He comments that these books are "boring", so... nice jab at... yourself, Gosho?
Kaitou Kid and the Black Star (Manga: 156-159)
And then, finally, Gosho Aoyama's two main characters meet each other in person on the roof of the Haido City Hotel. Furthermore, the ship Kaitou Kid (crossdressing as Ran Mouri) and Conan Edogawa have their showdown on, the "Queen Selizabeth" (or "Sallybeth" in some translations), is not only a play on the real Queen Elizabeth ships, it's also a reference to Queen Selizabeth of Inglam from Chapter 21 of Magic Kaito ("Crystal Mother", Magic Kaito Volume 4, Chapter 1), whose name already was a play on Queen Elizabeth as a person herself.
This case also serves as Aoko Nakamori's only direct appearance in this Manga so far and the debut of her father Ginzo Nakamori, who became a recurring character. It later on got a tie-in story in the form of Chapter 23 and 24 (Magic Kaito Volume 4, Chapter 3-4) of Magic Kaito, with Kid reminiscing about the "Clock Tower Heist" shortly before gliding to the aforementioned Haido City Hotel.
Additionally, Conan Edogawa is depicted in Kaitou Kid's default get-up on the cover of Volume 16 and Kid himself features in that volume's keyhole.
Volume 20
Magic Lovers Case (Manga: 192-196)
Kaitou Kid returns in the guise of a chubby user of a message board for hobby magicians, calling himself Katsuki Doito and investigating the mysterious death of Fuden Harui. His father, Touichi Kuroba, is also mentioned for the first time, being Yoshinori Ara's and of course "Katsuki's" favorite magician.
