My only issue is I have been in places (like Yuma, Laughlin) where it was 110 degrees AT MIDNIGHT. I took 12 v right off the back of the reefer.

I have ordered 3 coolink swif2-800 80mm fans from Quietpc Usa, they are 1100 rpm,19.1cfm at 9 DB for the inside of the fridge, I will also change the light switch to a SPDP switch so that when the door is open the fans will not run and blow the cold air out.
 More to come. ^.^d

I bought a 12v fan at campingworld that goes behind the fridge.  I wouldn't work based on their instructions or at least I couldn't get it to work using the attachment to the tubes with the thermocouple thing.  I tapped into the 12v always hot lighting wiring and put a switch above the refer so that I can turn it on or off from inside.  It is a box fan that mounts on the wood floor the fridge sit on and aims straight up the stack just to create a little air current going up.  Seems to help especially when combined with the little fan for inside the unit that circulates air.
