Are the S4/S5 cargo bin supports diffrent?

I went to mock up my interior last night and found the fiberglass bin support piece wont fit in between the trim pieces that snap into the sides of the car below the B pillar. Maybe the Bin supports and the trim are from diffrent Series?


Ive sourced parts from different gens and i cant tell if my trim or bin support are S4 or S5.

Any insight guys?

The only difference between the S4 supports and the S5 bin supports is the holes drilled for the screws and that the US spec S5 cars have a slightly wider seat belt section so the bin support is trimmed accordingly again, for the S5 US spec models.

my bin support is too wide at its widest point, if i were to trim about 1/2 inch off of each one it would fit fine- id rather get the correct parts and go that route though

right, but on the other hand if i have the wrong trim it will possibly cause other fitment issues.
ill snap a pic tonight and maybe someone can identify it.

if you really think you have s4 supports just track down some s5 ones, the bin supports are pretty cheap since every drifter wants to have stripped interior

i wish i thought it through about an interior before i pulled all my dash harness and heater core etc out- It's not gonna be fun to reinstall everything.
