Question F30 M Sport Steering Wheel, Retro fit

Hi Guys/gals, I'm wanting to replace my Sportline Steering Wheel with paddle shifters to the M Sport one. Love the softer. thicker feel. They just feel so much better than the hard, thinner one I currently have. From what i have managed to establish online. Provided I get a paddle shifter version it should be a straight plug and play. See here: http://www.bmwclubmalaysia.com/newfo...l-retrofitted/

What worries me though is one of the posts in the thread quoted above has the comment: "In all cases, the system software will have to be updated". This sort of moves it away from plug and play?

Can anyone clarify a couple of things for me. 1> IE: If I get an M sport steering (with airbag) with the same controls and paddle shifters (identical features) is it a simple swap or do I need some kind of coding?

2> Looking on ebay I can get one from the UK with single stage airbag. Is a single stage airbag what I need for Australia?

Appreciate any help.

BTW: I'm running a JB4 Stage 2 on my F30 320I and its truly awesome!
