CGEM vs CG-5 mounts

I've got a quick question about the tripods for the CGEM and CG-5 goto mounts. Are they the same tripod and would the CGEM head work on a CG-5 tripod? I know Celestron beefed up the tripod from 2" to 2.75" for the DX but the tripods for the CG-5 and CGEM look the same.
Thanx robin

I believe you will find the tripods are not interchangeable, just as the CG5 and Atlas tripods ain't interchangeable despite being nearly identical.
