Default 99.5 or 99 a4 2.8l

What are some of the differences between a 99 and a 99.5 a4 2.8l and what is the best way to tell the two apart. My buddy told me that the 99.5 model has the lighted sunroof buttons and the 99 doesn't. Thanks

Default that's only the outside. The interior of the 99.5 is much better, too.

specifically the HVAC unit and the fog light buttons, and cup holders

Default Not true.

My 99.5 has the red lighting in the cluster and console.

Default They're OZ Superleggeras. Pretty easy to come by, very popular. Just do a search!

Thanks for the compliment
