Hi I want to change my toilet flush too a dual flush to try and save water when family are out, does anybody know if the fittings are the same as the uk, I was going too bringing them out from screw fix and change them myself.

I used to get stuff like that from the hardware shop in El Altet, they are super helpful and the prices are as good as you will find anywhere.
I just took a photo of what I needed, or took the part that needed replacing with me and they always had what I needed.
I replaced both mine, it’s an easy swap.
Just make sure you replace the bolts and washers that fasten the cistern to the pan to avoid leaks and definitely replace the O ring between the pan and cistern otherwise I guarantee you will have leaks every time you flush the toilet.

They look about the same Steve, I’ve never measured them though, I’d reckon they are a universal fit.
I know when I’ve fitted them in the UK the instructions have been in several languages....that tells me they’ll fit
