is it possible to swap interior out of S5 GXL to a S4 turboII?
what about speedo cluster and idiot lights?
different connectors/plugs?
or do i just use turboII cluster and idiot lights?

thanks

 

its possible but your going to run into sissues with things like the power seat belt parts from the s5's (ie center console ,a pillars etc.) and i highly recommend you not swap in an s5 guage cluster if you like knowing whats happening with your car.

 

i planned on using the turbo II gauge cluster and idiot lights.
just wondered if they were interchangeable?

i dont see what issues i would run into putting the S5 into the S4.
i could see running into a problem trying to put the a-pillars onto car with pwr seatbelts, but without it shouldnt much of an issue. the a-pillars i have are cracked anyways from my S5, so i guess i ll be in the market for black a-pillars from a S4 model without auto seatbelts.

 

s5 guages are highly inaccurate, especially the water temp guage, which is your god. Who cares if they are cooler looking, if you want cool make a custom full aftermarket instrument panel with reliable guages (a future project for me) not to mention the wiring for them is different i do believe. No clue about the idiot lights, mine work so theres no reason to change them., for black A-pillars you may have to search japanese or Austrailian forums to find non power seat belt models, or you could just simply paint yours with a semi-gloss black, wouldnt be to hard and would look great with the right prep work. Plastic is easily painted when done right. It'd save you some money and no one would be the wiser if you did a good job. Hell i might do it since i'm scrapping the power belts in my S5
