Toyota Avalon Front Brakes

I'm saying the part numbers for the aftermarket are the same both front and rear on the two different vehicles: 2013 Avalon and a 2013 ES 350. So there should be no problem interchanging them.
The part number I got for both the 2013 Avalon and ES 350
AKEBONO ACT1212 (rear)
AKEBONO ACT1222 (front)
Whether Lexus and Toyota internally has the same number or have the same exact compound is something I don't know. But the idea they won't "work" seems wrong from what I'm seeing. It would be like saying because the tires that come on an Avalon with 17" rims are a different compound or brand than the ones that come on an ES 350 with 17" rims, that they aren't compatible. In terms of dimensions, they should be the same
But a Toyota dealership may decide not to do it for a variety of reasons.
I like to do my own brakes, but an independent shop is usually a much better value than a dealership. I also prefer aftermarket ceramic pads.
