Will help with insulation of the camper. What did you do with the radio? I was thinking of mounting it inside the cabinet under the sink.
They now have separate freeze door fridges that will fit in that opening. Found one on Walmart for $96.

Question;
1. Did you keep the old fridge fan. was thinking of removing it to aid in installing the new fridge further back.?..... Yes but I'll probably remove it for the same reason. Although the fridge isn't in the way at all.
2. But thought it might help in removing the hot air that the compressor makes on very hot days......... We just this minute got back from 5-days of desert camping. It reached in the 90s during the day. I never turned on the fridge fan.
3. Plan on fiber glassing the inside of the vent covers too. As those will not be needed. Will help with insulation of the camper....... I left the fridge vent covers in place. However, I did put some screen on the inside. When we desert camp (often) we tow the trailer down some rough dirt roads and haven't had an issue with dirt getting inside.
4. What did you do with the radio?....... I put it on a shelf in the garage. I may sell it. I've owned TMs for about 15 years and we've never turned on that radio.
