MAC Eyeshadow...Can I put regular MAC shadows in the Pro Palette or do they have to be the refills?

I was wondering if its possible to pop the eyeshadow out of the basic MAC shadow container and put it in the Pro Palette? I love my shadows and I'd love to have them all in the same case. Thanks! =)

Update:

Thanks for the wonderful tips! I found the tutorials on Youtube..yay..thank you so much!

    Allthatglitters21 on youtube has a tutorial for how to do that. It's a little time consuming but possible.

    It's definitely possible. It can be a little tricky and the pans won't be magnetized like the refill pans, but it's do-able. Check out Yout Tube for a few different techniques, and if you need to help the pans stick in the palette, just glue on a really thin magnet (you can get those from a craft store). Good luck!

    Yeah I did that, it's not that hard really. I used heat from my straightener, its a little tricky to get it out but i did it eventually :P then you will have sticky residue on the pan, I used it to place it in my palette and it's stuck just like the magnet one! Now I have 2 eyeshadows 1 magnetic pan and the other that wad depotted but it's atleast something xD
