DSDP 43xx Bay 1

Anyone know what’s behind the wall in bay 1, the 1st bay on the passenger side that sometimes houses the dometic cooler? I’d like to put a few screws into that wall but don’t know what’s behind it. I could remove the screws around it and take it off to look, but that sounds like Work.

It is much less work than punching into something expensive to fix. Ask me how I know[emoji33]

most likely the fuel tank is back there...but there would be some space....

i'd take the panel off....

measure twice, cut once, comes to mind....

Bill, there is some space there. Yo can climb under and see the tank. As a matter of fact there is a dead space there. I keep my blue toilet tank up in the dead space. It would be hard to get to, but it's for emergencies only. If you think drilling will be an issue, slide a piece of wood behind the wall until your done.
