2 stage or 3 stage airbag?

Hey all, first post here!

I'm looking to get a little more information from what I consider to be a reliable source, y'all! So I'm looking to purchase an M Tech steering wheel (https://www.ebay.com/itm/183454921851 - or something of the like... possibly the OEM M5 one?) and retrofit it to my '11 535i M Sport (based in the US).The seller of that particular wheel is telling me I'll need to purchase a 3 stage airbag for it as well, which is an extra 300 something to him. Is this true!? I've always been under the impression that I'd need a 2 stage. Enlighten me! Thanks guys!

You need 2 stage, sounds like he's trying to squeeze some more cash outta you.

Also, hello from reddit!

Hey I have the same car as you I think, 2015 bmw 535xi. I am also being told by the seller on eBay that I need a 3 stage airbag instead of a dual stage. I know you told this guy he needs a dual but he has a 2011 so just to be sure I also need a dual stage for my car? not a 3 stage? thanks man
