As far as I know there should be only one Airbag module and it is located under the center console almost under the carpet. The center console has to be removed, if you remove the vents from the back of the console maybe you can see it. Go to real oem and look it up.

I think I have a clue. Earlier pre LCI models have 2 airbag modules 1 on each side under pillar with pillar sensors integrated in module . after 09/2005 BMW has redesigned its airbag electrics with only one airbag module relocated under centre console while pillar sensors left in same place
