ossify 1 Report post Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) was just informed that the rubbish chute I must get is model 005, not 001. model 005 costs $130, compared to 001's $80 my old chute's dimensions are 485mm by 535mm my new chute's dimensions are 500mm by 550mm, yellow colour (they only had blue, pink and yellow at the time) i don't know why my contractor say it can fit even though it looks bigger by 15mm length and width to me, guess i'll leave it to him Edited December 22, 2009 by ossify Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
