S4 cluster bezel fit S5?

Okay, I did a search, but didn't come up with the answer. I need the replace the cluster bezel in my 89 RX and I came across some for the S4 years. I don't see any differences (well at least in the pictures) but wanted to check here to make sure they will fit in a S5?

I would be transplanting the controls so I'm okay there, just need the bezel itself.

Thanks
Bret

it fits but you can't transplant the turn signal or cruise control switches, as the S5 ones are specific to S5 bezel and S5 wiring.

The post in my current bezel broke which held the turn signal switch. The switch itself is fine, so I would just use the controls from my current bezel in the S4 bezel. Are you saying the mounting is different in the S4 bezel for the turn signal?

The mounting and wiring is different.

So to make it more clear (as I guess my first reply must not have been)

YOU CAN NOT USE A S5 TURN SIGNAL SWITCH OR CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH IN A S4 Bezel.

And you can not use a S4 turn signals switch and or a S4 Cruise control switch in a S5 car as they are wired different (requiring either re-pinning/re-wiring of the harness or using the correct switch).

Ok, thanks for the info. I knew the wiring was different but I guess I'm surprised that they made the mounting different when the bezel itself is similar between S4 & S5. Oh well, guess I'll keep an eye out on ebay for an S5 bezel.
