A42B

I did some searching but wasnt able to get this questioned answered. I'm looking at an 08 non sport. I MUCH prefer the 3 spoke steering wheel. I'm assuming I can replace the non sport steering wheel with the sport wheel?

If so, where can I buy one?

I've done this in the past on bmw's, it was pretty easy. I have my fingers crossed that I can put a sport steering wheel on an A8 as well

thank you

Yes you can. You can install one with paddles too.

Sweet. So

Where can I buy one?
How much does it cost?
Is there a DIY?

This is a big deal, since I"m hung up on the sport package. So if I buy a non sport, add the sport steering wheel, and 20" rims then I can go with a non sport and get the look that I want.

Try eBay Germany. Problem is that most of them won't ship to US (if you are in US). Just don't buy anything before you know airbag shape. Airbag is expensive and you will have one from your steering wheel. If car comes with no paddle shifters you will need VCDS to activate them, but you will use it for far more than that, so it is money well spent.

I just bought 3 spoke s line wheel on for my 06. Around 350 new. Unfortunately had to buy air bag also

Where did you find a new steering wheel for $350? Why did you have to buy air bag?

The air bags are not the same. The three spoke wheels use a round one.

Check out ebay to see what's available.
