I ALSO PICKED UP THE CHROME EDGE TRIM AND SILICONE THERE.

DECIDE HOW DEEP AND WHAT DIAMETER YOU WANT THE HOLDERS TO BE.
MINE WERE: 2" HIGH X 2 1/2 BOTTOM X 2 3/4 TOP I JUST WANTED IT TO FIT A CAN.
REMEMBER THE BOTTOMS MUST FIT FLAT IN THE TRAY IF YOU ARE USING IT.
IF YOU ARE NOT USING THE TRAY ADJUST HEIGHT MEASUREMENT ACCORDINLY.
CAREFULLY MARK THE CUPS FOR THE TOP AND BOTTOM MEASUREMENTS.
MEASURE ON EACH SIDE FROM BOTTOM AND MARK.
PLACE A RUBBER BAND AROUND TO GET A STRAIGHT LINE AROUND THE CUP.
REMEMBER, THE BOTTOM MEAUREMENT MUST BE THE OVERALL DIAMETER THAT YOU WANT TO OBTAIN.
