Are the axles (without the spanner flats) from a Shimano m540 or similar pedal a straight swap into an m520 body? I've got two damaged pairs of pedals I'd like to combine.

Look at the drawings and decide, to me it looks like it won't work because the lock bolt head of a 540 will interfere with the main body of a 520 before the pedal axle assembly is fully home

Thanks, it does seem like it won't work, I hadn't appreciated the bodies were different given both pairs of pedals are at the bottom of my spares box.
