S5 storage bins interchangable with S4?

i have the storage bins in my 86 and they are cheap and shitty. the crap velcro tabs dont hold any more. the bins with the locks (im not sure if theyre exclusive to S5 or not...) seem much nicer. are they interchangeable? anyone want to get rid of some?

Sounds like you have aftermarket bins (as sold by Pacific back in the late 80's).

The stock bins have always had a key lock and are the same for all years regardless of series.

I thought I replied... Hmm, at this time I let my CA automotove repair permit not get renewed, so I can no longer take drive ups.

But you can send the switch
