I had Look PX 12's on my anthems and just picked up some FKS 180s for them, is the toe piece the same drill pattern on both of them? So potientially I could just mount the FKS toe piece in place of the PX's then my shop would only have to re-mount the heel. Or would it be better to just have the toe remounted too?

Yerp same pattern....

Depends on the state of the holes. if they seem structurally sound then sure use them.. aslong as the screws bite and dont just keep turning in the holes.

Alright I will check it out for sure, then just have the shop mount the heels in the appropiate spots. Maybe they will even cut me a deal for not having to do the toes just the heel pieces

I have px15s and px12s. 12s are the plastic toe. 15s are the metal driver toe. I dont have my skis in front of me but im 99.9% sure they are a different toe pattern.

and to help support my stance

The PX12, PX14 and the FKS140 feature the same Dual Action III toe piece (the plastic one). The FKS180 features the FKS toe peice, the same as on the PX15 and the PX18. The Dual Action III and FKS toes have different mounting patterns.

^ yep that's correct. So op you will have to remount and move your mount position if you want to use the fks on the same ski.

That should tell you everything you need to know. I know that the metal toed version has always been the same, fks to px to fks. Not sure on plastic.
