Differences in threads of Tein Coilovers - basic vs cts?

I have a set of tein basic coilovers that I was wanting to bag.

However, the threaded air brackets I found are only tested on Tein CTS coils and I have been told the tein does have a tendency to switch thread patterns among their coilovers.

Can anyone tell me, with certainty, if the thread pattern on the basics is the same as the cts?

I cant seem to find the answer to my question online and tein never got back with me....

Nope its not the same. We did the test fit on Tein Basics with our threaded mounts. and the UAS bags may not fit over the tein Basics. I know for the scions the body of the damper is larger than the hole of the USA bag. I may be wrong on the other cars.
