^I wouldn't be so certain that's the case - chemical reactions that make bleach strip the color out of dyed fabric/synthetic is not necessarily the same as what makes the color take in the dying process itself. You just may need to find the right dye for the material and/or dying process (i.e., more time, heat, etc.)

Didn't know that, too bad the S5 carpet won't fit - black seems pretty common on the S5's. When I got my S5, I wanted to retrofit to the S4 manual seat belts in and ditch the S5 motor-mouse belts, only to find too much of the interior bits were changed between S4/S5, making the job a major PITA. Eventually I got used to them
