Picked up this cabinet the other day and am looking into getting a new plastic piece for the lower door. I was wondering if anybody had a pic of the bottles or cans that would have set in the cutouts on top of this thing. Thanks, Tom

Hi, I only have the one Trico bottle and it has a paper label. I am pretty sure that they had bottles that were printed right onto the glass as well. I did have this Trico cabinet up for sale but you gave me an idea how to display my windshield solvent bottle collection, so now it is a keeper. Thanks, Don.

Tom,
I only have one solvent can but it is too large to fit the holes. The can diameter is 2&5/8" and the holes are 2&1/4'. Hope this helps. Should be a couple pictures included.

Tom, I checked my cabinet last night because I thought the openings were a little too large for the bottles. It turns out that it fits perfectly the 16 oz cans. So it looks like the version Chris has takes the 6 oz bottles, which are a 2 1/8" diameter and the larger hole versions take the 2 5/8" diameter cans. Cheers, Don

Just noticed the difference in the cans too, with one saying anti-smear and the other anti-freeze solvent. Mine was made in the US and it is a US pint (16 oz). It is all in the details for some of us. Cheers, Don.
