The snap-lock elbows are Dorman units.

That's about what I had in mind. I have the nylon braided PTFE hose kit that came with all the AN6 fittings so I'll just use them. I've found it a pain to do flares on hard lines already on the car with limited space to work in. I made all my brake lines and flared them but In my experience with plumbing of all kinds, I don't have a problem using a compression fitting.
