I have a 96 audi a4 and I was wondering if I could change my steering wheel to like a 2002 audi's wheel? I like the three point steering wheels the best.

 

I do not believe you can use a B6 steering wheel on a B5....maybe with an adapter. I believe you can use a B5 Sport steering wheel but I believe there are spline issues when trying to install on a '96. I am no authority on the subject though, maybe someone else with more knowledge can chime in.

 

Use the search feature - I remember this being discussed at length last year.

 

You can use a sport wheel, but you have to find a prefacelift sport wheel. They are much harder to come by and generally more expensive than the facelift sport wheels.

I made the mistake of buying a facelift wheel, taking my old wheel off and realizing that the airbag connector and splines are different.

I was checking all the classifieds multiple times a day and swooped a prefacelift wheel for $150 (I was prepared to pay $250) the instant I saw it posted. It is by far the most noticeable and functional improvement I've done to my interior.

 

thanks I'll try the search button, but really fast I might have mis lead you all. I dont know Im still a lil new to Audi but what about an S4 steering wheel made for B5's would that work?

 

^ See above. An S4 is not pre-facelift so it doesn't fall into that category.
