When I did my conversion, I bought a 23.5 cu. ft. Samsung side by side counter depth with water and ice through the door. With the doors removed it fit through the entrance door after removing the pass. seat. The great thing about a counter depth refer is the box is only 24". This also doesn't protrude into the room as standard depth refers due. Samsung also will operate on a modified sine wave inverter just fine as the unit uses variable speed DC motors for compressor and fans. Very efficient operation. In my case I only have 4 Trojan house batteries but run generator in the morning and evening about 1 1/2 to 2 hours when boon docking. We are in our RV about 7 months a year but we keep it on 24/7 and been using it flawlessly for 5 years. Can't help with installer as I did my own work. Refer 34 degrees and freezer -4 degrees.
Good luck with your modification, you won't be sorry.
Blessings; Keith

Oregon Motorcoach Center in Eugene did ours and did a great job.
