'05 sport steering wheel airbag compatability

Hi all. I have a 04/05 build date of my X5 and I just got a free sport heated steering wheel (08/05 build date) from my mech after he did my blower motor replacement job. He said I just need to grab an airbag for this and its ready...
the question is, as I look up in realoem for the part #, its shows 2 part numbers for the airbag. one up to 09/05 (ONLY found on e53) and one till end of production of the e53 (found in e53 AND e83).
can I ask what the difference is between these two airbags?

Everywhere on the net, it shows that the e46, e39 and e53 have "same" airbag, but not according to realoem. But I just realized it cause the e46 and e53 both shared a same steering wheel for a the first few years...

I'm finding a hard time trying to track down a face lifted sport steering wheel airbag believe it or not.
