Brake bleeder screw sizes

Gonna do brakes soon, and of course bleeding them is always such fun. But necessary to do a complete job. So I decided to get a set of Speed Bleeder check valve screws, but I am having trouble verifying the caliper and rear slave cylinder bleeder sizes for the 2009 base Fit.

Not sure, but I think the fronts are 10 X 1.25mm. Can anyone confirm that, and what size are the rear drum brake slave cylinder bleeders?

Also, is DOT 4 fluid OK? Supposed to absorb less moisture than DOT 3. I know DOT 5 silicone-based type is a no-no.

I called Speed Bleeder today and they looked up the sizes for the '09 Fit, which are:
Front calipers 10mm x 34.44mm length, 1.25 pitch
Rear drum cylinders 8mm x 32.54mm length, 1.25 pitch
$7 each + $5.95 shipping, they're on the way
