3. A-pillar and roof - driver
4. A-pillar and roof - passenger
5. Door - driver
6. Door - passenger
7. Door - rear driver
8. Door - Rear passanger

From my BMW booklet the A-pillar airbag runs from the A pillar, up to the roof and stops past the B pillar.

Mine 2002 also ASC. CBU from Dingolfing.

mine is CKD, 2003...BUT when I went into the test mode, it says 2002 AUS so I'm not sure why but it is AB car cause I called to check and the records are there.
