How many airbags are there in an E46?

I always thought there are 6 airbags but found another 2 near the windscreen pillar ???

Could be your car is Jap import which generally is to higher spec than NZ market versions. My E39 has 10 air bags which is more than generally found in NZ new E39s

I'm pretty sure I've only counted 6 in my 2002 525i O.o
