We installed a 10.x cuft Whirlpool counter depth like Barry mentions. We also (with Rogers help) installed a dedicated inverter system. We have rear coils and limited the exterior air circulation in the rear of the compartment. We had to router the top of the original opening and place a small flat sheet of aluminum to strengthen the base that we bolted to. We bought a Door latch from a Thor distributor TOTAL VALUE RV ELKHART INDIANA 1-574-262-4460. part number tfm3293 lock refer travel, 16cf & 18cf, steel, pc black. The lock is only $7.41 with shipping total of $21.03. Worth every cent. to us.
I would add a heads up to determine how much of the capacity is due to the door. Our door sticks out a bit more than the other installs we have seen. My wife loves it. YMMV.
