Are the roof panels of the FRS and Brz interchangeable?

So my FRS got hail damage about a month ago. Been waiting to get parts in, the hood, roof, and trunk all need to be replaced. But the roof is apparently on back order. It's been weeks and I'm starting to get antsy... will the roof of the BRZ fit easily if I instruct the garage to get that instead? Thanks guys!!!

The only thing I would be worried about is the antenna. Is there a larger hole in the BRZ roof to accommodate the larger antenna base that might not be covered up easily by the FR-S antenna base?
Not sure what the roof panel looks like with the base taken off on either of these cars, so I'm not sure. Maybe they don't even come pre-drilled so you should be fine?

BRZ's hole is pretty small. Here's a link to my post showing the antenna base off of the car: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...78&postcount=8
