Johnny,

These photos are GREAT--they really help you see what you're about to
get into. Really valuable for anyone pulling their fridge. Would be
good if you could get them posted in the vanagon.com site's
Refrigerator Info section (http://www.vanagon.com/problems/). That
would save lots of folks time digging around in the archives.

thanks,
Nolan
