Description
I really love the Dinzl Assortment Boxes by Dinzl Ordnungstechnik and i also love Gridfinity for organizing small parts. When i looked a both, if figured that they are an almost perfect match for 8x5x6u Gridfinity bins.
They are made under different names for quite a while now but the design changed from those made 20+ years ago - especially the hinges and the joints at the corners are slighty different. You can get them used of ebay for cheap or buy them brand new online here:

The inserts are currently compatible with all boxes with 340 x 240 x 50 mm. Figure out wich Version/Model you have (see images below if you unsure)
if you have one of the following, print the “new” Version
else the “legacy” insert is right for you, since it has a bit of tolerance and also cutouts at the corners, to overcome damaged corners
Everything prints with no supports. PLA with 2 walls and 10 to 15 % Infill is plenty strong.
Print 2 pieces as is - they have a rotational symmetry (do not mirror them)
Put the 2 pieces together outside the box (no glue needed) and gently slide them in - on the legacy version, the hinge is on the inside, so you need to slightly bend and wiggle it in
If your box does not come with a foam on the top, glue some 3 to 4 mm soft foam on top of the lid to prevent small parts falling out the bins when the box is turned upside down
