i just bought a m5 steering wheel, came with just the wheel, no controls/inserts or airbag. I was comparing the steering wheel with my non sport wheel, and noticed that the controls/insert/triangle airbag may fit right into the m5 steering wheel. Its the exact same size. Wondering has anyone tried this before or know if it will work?
