Will storage boxes No. 487658 fit the new Sys-Storage systainer?

[Martin Johnson]

Bought the new Sys-Storage systainer from toolnut this week, and it arrived [big grin] last night.  It comes with 5 storage boxes, but I couldn't find them separately on the Festool Website if I need more.  Does anyone know if the older storage boxes like #487658 are the same dimensions and would work?  The dimensions of the new new boxes are not listed in the specs.

Don't have the older storage boxes around, but from everything I have heard the do not fit in the new tackle box-

Shane indicated that they are a separate part number but they have not yet seen them in the FestoolUSA Supply chain yet.  They do expect them to come out.

Product numbers from an earlier thread on SysStorage by K119Phil (Message 47) are:

500066 - Small Container x6 - $11
500067 - Medium Container x4 - $13
500068 - Large Container x2 - $15

I also just got the unit and really like it but would also like a few more containers!

I just compared the old orange boxes from the classic style SYS-BOX and they are smaller than what is in the SYS-Storage. The footprint appears slightly smaller and they are shorter.
