Fisher Paykel install is complete in my 2003 Camelot. It took myself and a friend about a full day to do the complete install, removal of Norcold, disassembly and fabrication of box where new fridge goes. Both old and new fridge fit through entry door without an issue. The furnace posed a huge problem as far as height, that is why I couldn't use the Samsung. I had to build a subfloor the same height as the furnace so that the fridge could sit approx 1/2" off the top of the furnace. I then ripped a piece of cherry to make up the space on the sides as the Norcold was wider. I still have the issue of the right door slightly touching the ceiling light as the Norcold did. I sealed up the roof vent and will seal the side access door with a piece of foam board that I can easily remove for access when I need it. It seems that the F&P uses the same compressor technology as the Samsung so the MSW inverter should be fine. I tend to be a little anal so I will be adding a PSW inverter in the near future. I will submit a second post with pictures. Any questions, please ask away. Thanks
