Subject:Dometic, Installing in a non-camper

Hey volks,

Can anyone refer to me to an owner site or provide input on the process of
installing a Dom into a Vanagon.  I'm interested in the following:

Time/tools/inspections required/advised
Best location (I'm thinking directly aft of the Driver)
If anyone has installed an enclosed access panel on the exterior which
houses the utility connections and/or provides access for PM
An improved design for the air inlet/outlet
If anyone knows the thickness of the stock LP tank's cylinder wall compared
to those 17# tanks or smaller sold at hardware stores.
If anyone has shortend the inlet tube and/or lengthened the exhaust tube
from the Dom to effect a superior 'flue draft'.

Amicalement!
