How is the fan(s) replaced in a Dometic fridge that vents from the roof instead of an upper side vent? I suspect that the fridge would have to be pulled from the inside.

Getting ready to install a couple of titan fans on the upper vent of a Dometic 12cf fridge. I have to cut & modify the upper vent to make sure the fans exhaust all the hot air possible.
I want to have a second "backup" vent door in case my modification goes south. We all know how that goes.
My part number is 3109350.065 and the vent only measurements are 21 1/16 x 13". I have been all over the WWW and cannot find this vent door anywhere. GD doesn't show it and the places I've looked imply it isn't make anymore and has been replaced. The replacement requires removing the whole frame - something I really don't want to do if not necessary.
Anyone have any suggestions on where I can get a 3109350.065 vent cover? Thanks.Tim & Lisa

Hey everyone, just finished my fridge mod and wanted to share the parts list. I have an 2021 Imagine 2670rk. It came with a single outside fan to help with cooling, but after just 9 months it was already noisy, very audible on the inside. So primary goal was to replace that, and went ahead and mounted a couple of fans internally while I was at it.
Sourced these from Coolerguys.com, they had the IP57/IP67 fans and all the accessory parts, plus shipping was cheap.
1x Dual pack (2) 80mm Black Fan Finger grills with screws $ 1.99
2x Mechatronics 80mm (80x80x25) 12v IP57 Quiet Fan F8025L12B-FSR-EM $ 19.95
2x 3pin Fan to Bare Wire Cable $ .75
1x Coolerguys Fan Mount / Stand Bracket Kit (Black Metal) $ 4.95
2x Coolerguys 120mm (120x120x25) Low Speed IP67 Dual Ball Bearing 12v Fan CG12025L12-IP67 $ 16.95
The 3pin cable wasn't really necessary, but it was cheap and made it easier to keep positive and negative separate.
With my setup, I already had a thermostat attached outside, so didn't need to purchase that. Only other part that was nice to have are some handy wire splicers from Amazon.
Wago 2 Port (10) 3 Port (10) 5 Port (5) 221 Splicing Connector, Lever-Nut Assortment Pocket Pack for All Wire 12-24 AWG
Everything mounted pretty easily. The outside fan had 12v already wired to the thermostat, so that was a simple replacement. The 120mm fans fit fine (perfect size actually) and are silent.
For the inside fans, I didn't want to take up fridge space, and my fridge has a nice opening between the fins and the drain pan that was perfect place to mount them (fans are waterproof so no issue with condensation affecting them). My fridge also has an inside light with constant power available, so instead of running the wiring down the drain I tapped into the light. Covered the wiring from the light with white electrical tape to make it look nice. I couldn't come up with a truly elegant way to attach the fans to the fins (alligator clips were $13 on Amazon, too rich for me), so used some electrical wire and looped it over the fin, mounted the fans underneath, and ran the wire through the fan holes with a knot on the end. They are silent, secure and move a surprising amount of air. If I was going to do it again I think I would actually get 3 fans instead of 2, since I do get a little frost where the fans aren't blowing. 80mm fan size was a good fit for my fridge.
I neglected to take any outside pictures, but here is one of the inside.

One of my two fans broke off the back of my 303RLS. Found it when I opened the bottom vent looking for a water leak. Opened the top vent and can’t access where the fan is attached because of a wood panel. The fridge has to be pulled out to replace it. I’m not sure how hard it is to pull out the fridge, but has anyone get some knowledge on that or advice. I may end up waiting until the end of the season and bring it in since it’s still under warranty if it’s a hassle. Thanks.

Well I went from 115 degrees in the PNW heat wave to Wyoming and Colorado where it is now a high in the 70’s. I did the mod after leaving the high heat though so can’t yet say how it much it will change under those conditions.
However, I’m pleased to report the wife is very happy and says our produce is staying fresher much longer. She says it’s the first time we have gone through a full tub of arugula without it spoiling before we finish it.
