Changing logbook from FAA to EASA

Hi everyone,

I have a bit of a "problem". I did most of my flying in U.S and got my FAA CPL ME/IR over there, and just converted my license to EASA CPL ME/IR.
In the U.S I had a "simple" logbook and was told to log my safety pilot hours in the PIC section. And since safety pilot hours is not valid in Europe I'm not sure how to sum up my hours in my new logbook (EASA approved).

Because according to my old FAA logbook I have aprox 230h PIC, of which about 100h is safety pilot. So according to EASA I have 130h PIC.. So if I forward my hours according to EASA, I will have less hours in my new logbook than in my previous logbook which don't make much sense and might be hard to explain to some airlines if they want a copy of my logbook.

Any suggestions on what to do?
