Knock sensors from 4th, 5th, 6th gen's.

Hey guys. How different are the 3 KS's for the three generations? I remember reading some time ago someone used a 4th gen KS on a 5.5 and it worked flawlessly but 4th gen KS tend to crack more often. I haven't seen anyone replace 5th gen KS with a 6th gen, though. Anyone out there?

I'm contemplating on replacing mine soon however I only have access to a 4th gen KS and a 6th gen KS but not a 5th gen. I want to save time and money and I want to know if I can use the 6th gen KS (since it is newer). Since the job is a painful one and 4th gen and 5th gen are apparently interchangeable, is it the same case with 5th gen and 6th gen KS?
