CM Storm Trigger compatible with Ducky Shine Keycaps?

Hi, I was looking at the CM Storm Trigger, I'm thinking about purchasing, however are there any keycaps that are compatible with it?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Purple-Ducky-key-caps-for-Ducky-Shine-mechanical-keyboard-MX-cherry-switches-/290920986179?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43bc3df643
Would the Ducky Shine custom keycaps be compatible with the keyboard? I don't see why not, considering the light shines through both the Shine and the Trigger's keycaps?
I'm looking to go for a decent keyboard with 1ms latency, so the CM Storm Trigger is right up my street, not too keen on the CM Storm Trigger's back-lighting when compared to Ducky's, but for the price compared to the Ducky Shine II, it's a safe bet. Unless there are any alternatives someone could suggest?

You sure? I mean, apart from the keyboard's lettering design, is there any difference in shape between the keycaps?

They will work fine as long as the Trigger has a US-ANSI layout.

They should fit just fine, if there is anything to worry about it's probably the keycaps' height.

I believe both should be of the same height / profile (OEM). The 5 macro keys can always get some other cool caps.
