Mechanical Refrigerator Thermostat? Simple? Cheap?

I just Inherited a Peltier refrigerator. OEM control is bad, and I just spent 2 hours in frustration looking for a remote probe totally mechanical thermostat on the web. The gizmo IMO would be useless...

did you check RV parts
the old Norcold and Dometic fridges used mechanical thermostats
would something like that work

what about a cheap digital A/C thermostat, like you mount on the wall, uses 12v ? or maybe a 9v battery
