Rather than mangling the original can why not save it intact and
fabricate a replica cover for the replacements?



Jim, one need not "mangle" the old cans. The plastic ones were generally
mounted with either two bolt tabs or by a clamping ring assembly from the
bottom side of the chassis. At the worst, only the phenolic bottom disk of
the old cap need be damaged to "re-stuff" it. With care, even that may be
preserved, and only the guts changed.
