I'm guessing you'd need the 4.8is steering wheel with heated button, the wiring harness, the heating module and then code this into the car.
I looked into that for my 4.6is and cost is quite prohibitive. If its for 2 cold months, you might consider an aftermarket heated option from amazon or ebay. Not as pretty but just as effective.

Here is a shot of a 2005 with heated steering wheel. My guess it will be a wheel and airbag combination. I'm not sure exactly, living in the south, there just isn't the need for them.

Is the OP looking for any heated steering wheel? Or are they specifically looking for the heated 3 spoke steering wheel? If it doesn't matter...then you can look for the 4 spoke or 3-spoke ($$$$) heated steering wheel.
My 06 has the 4-spoke heated steering wheel...and it may not be "purty"...but I do like what it gives off on cool mornings that are too warm for gloves...but the wheel is still "cool" to the touch.  Have you used any of the part databases yet? They all have a part nbr search feature. For example, click the link below to go to the diagram...then click on the blue "i" that's to the left of the heated steering wheel's 11 digit part nbr...that will list all the other BMW models that use the same steering wheel (the e53 & e83)...and would be compatible. Also take note of the other supplemental info that is being given...like option code # and build date range:

I plan on doing this upgrade on mine and I have been battling with deciding on keeping the normal wheel or going to the sport wheel when I do the heated swap over.
I have paid close attention for the past week as to how I grip the wheel and at the moment the stock normal wheel is winning. From a flat out looks department the sport wheel wins. No doubt. But from a driving standpoint with where I rest my arm on the door and all the normal wheel is probably best for me. You can bet though that before I fork out $400 for the heated wheel I will drive a sport equipped wheel something to do the final comparison with. One thing about the normal wheel too for me is that all my other bmw's have the standard steering wheel. So when I go from one car to the next its familiar.
