I had an R V refrigeration specialist in the Midwest install a new scratch and dent 3 way (propane/110/12v)
2 door - same size as used in 26's - in my 23'. Was extremely happy w/ the decision, the performance, the extra refrig and freezer space, and the cost. Would do the same again in a heart beat - one of the best upgrades I have done and the Frau loved it.
