I spotted the Thieves cache symbol outside Belathors General Goods in Whiterun, but can't seem to find it, where is it, and the others in Whiterun?

The Rift is the Hold in the south east-most portion of the map. It's capital is Riften.
The Reach is the west-most hold of the map. It's capital is Markath.

Thanks to a useful post on Yahoo! Answers, I realized there's actually three sets of Thieves Guild Armor you can spawn through the console, and the UESP is listing the wrong one. The ones you want are as follow:
player.additem 000d3ac2 1
player.additem 000d3ac3 1
player.additem 000d3ac4 1
player.additem 000d3ac5 1
I've just confirmed it working. The ones the UESP list aren't visible in inventory view (they do show up in the world, though). I suspect they're meant for NPCs, since many NPCs carry invisible-from-inventory armor. Being different armor, it won't work with Tonilia's quest.
For completeness's sake:
00036584 - Armor, NPC version
000d3ac3 - Armor, Basic version
000d3acc - Armor, Upgraded version
00036583 - Boots, NPC
000d3ac2 - Boots, Basic
000d3acb - Boots, Upgraded
00042be9 - Glove, NPC
000d3ac4 - Glove, Basic
000d3acd - Glove, Upgraded
00036585 - Hood, NPC
000d3ac5 - Hood, Basic
000d3ace - Hood, Upgraded

What you saw on his door was not the 'Thieves Cache' mark, which looks like this:
It was the "Loot Here!" mark, indicating that Belethor's shop is a good place to rob. It looks like this:
While the interior of both symbols is the same, the exterior border differs. This matters.
The Thieves Cache mark is only directly on the cache itself - never nearby.
The Whiterun Caches, for reference, are behind Carlotta Valentia's house, South of House Grey-Mane in the City Wall, and behind the Bannered Mare.
