Stuck at work - HiLux LN106 brake line fittings.

Hi Guys,
Just asking cause I'm stuck at work, and can't get home to check. Race Brakes are making up some lines for me now off my old celica lines.
I'm doing the Hilux/Corona/Pug upgrade and was wondering if the fitting on the end of the brake line that goes into the caliper is the same on the HiLux as the Celica, by some lucky sitch. I remember checking it, and the thread is the same (ie. the celica line screws into the hilux caliper), but in my hastiness I didn't check to see if it screws all the way in and connects up properly  .
Any help is much appreciated, I'll be screwed if I get my new lines with old unusable fittings.
Cheers.

Just by luck I have already done this conversion and I had new lines made up using the Celica ones as the model. Yes, you can use the Celica fitting for the Hilux caliper just as you can (obviously) use the Hilux fittings in that caliper.
Cheers,
Mitch.

Not a worry.
I left my standard RA23 lower lines with the brakes guys and they re-made them with 30mm longer lines, which, funnily enough, was actually cheaper than suppling replacement lines the same as the original length.....go figure !
Cheers,
Mitch.
PS: Thanks to CLG who recommended these brake guys to me in Perth.

Yeh pretty funny:
Original celica rubber lines from Toyota for $115 each
or
Quality, street/ADR approved and braided for $110 each.
Hmm let me think......
