Non ZSP to an M-Tech steering wheel question

.
I'm going with the M-Tech wheel and the non 'M' multifunction cover.
So I need the wheel,cover,airbag.
Do I need anything else to make the changeover?

I can't tell by these diagrams.
Hoping someone that knows or did the changeover will let me know before I buy the wheel,multifunctional insert cover and airbag.

If you're ordering an OEM wheel through proper channels (eg Dealership) then the wheel will come with the airbag bracket. The cheapies available off ebay are often missing them (maybe they're factory seconds/rejects?)

The Ebay sport airbag sales all seem to be just the bag.Without the bracket that you can't buy alone from BMW,you get left holding the bag.
There's a Swedish company on Ebay that sells BMW steering wheels and airbags.
Their airbags look like they have the bracket.
That company after shipping fees is a bit cheaper but in my opinion,it's better ordering from Tischer.They're a sponsor here with great customer service if there's a problem.
I PM'd Evan at Tischer and he posted what parts I need and I ordered them.
