Putting an S5 Interior, into an S4 car.

Putting an S5 Interior, into an S4 car.
From what i've read I will have empty spots in a couple of places, but i've also heard I need to keep the S4 headliner and A/B pillars. Is there a reason you can't use the S5 ones? Just remove the crap from inside the seatbelt track and use it for mounting? If possible i'd like to just have to make a hole to mount the S4 seatbelt and for it to go back in the retractor. Then just have to dye the S4 Seatbelt. Where would I have metal showing through?

I used the S4 pillars on mine, but its a track car so I don't really care that they don't quite match the rest of the black. You may well be less lazy than me and make it work though.

Personally,I'd use the s4 belts,as the s5's are Prone to Packing up..they Stick.Now as far as the pillars..if you use the S4 A pillars,you need the Seatbelts,and associated hardware,and the back Trim,as the Seatbelt comes out of the hole there..The Hole for the belt,where it attaches on the car should,by rights be there,as they never like to switch "Dies" out on the machine..just punch up new frames!..the S5's had the Belts In the A pillars,so there would be a gap there.That is why I am saying go with the S4 Pillar Plastics..

I definately am not using shitty S5 seatbelts. I just would prefer to use all S5 pieces. I am figuring it would be easier to dye the S4 parts than to make a spacer to fit in where the automatic seatbelt track would go? Or could i get a sawzall and gut it up to make the original track fit in there? I really have no problem with that.
