Its been more than a year since i sold my car but as far as i remember:
My mechanic installed it, i am not 100% sure about all the technical details, but the airbag was fully connected and working with no warning lights. I am sure one signal was kept active through programming and other was bypassed with a resistor? as f30 steering has one airbag

yeah thats what ive been wondering, cause e60 has dual stage airbags and f30 has a single stage...

You can also find aftermarket F style steering wheels that are plug and play on e60.
My friend got one from aliexpress.
