Couple of mods that I haven't posted yet

12 volt muffin fan to blow the cool air around in the fridge
Wired another 12 volt fan that moves air up the "chimney" behind the fridge to keep the coils cool. It kicks on via thermostat and both fans are wired to a toggle switch I mounted inside the camper. Once I turn the fridge on I flip the switch and she cools like a dream. I also screened every opening including fridge vent, water heater vent, and furnace vent. Had to add shelves to the cabinets, it doubled our storage. Built a small storage shelf/shoe cabinet next to entry door that makes it so much nicer to keep things tidy.

Good job on the mods! I like the shoe storage rack. I purchased a cabinet for that open space in our 23rb but my brother just purchased a Dutchman with our same floorplan, so I'm going to show him your idea.

Share away! It was originally just for shoes but we soon realized it is a great place to stick hats, and gloves, and anything else you need to grab by the door.
Forgot to post the pick of the rocker switch that controls the two 12v fans. It's in the corner by the fridge and stove just beneath the range hood.
