That wire goes into the bottom door shelf holder--to help hold taller
things such as quart milk or OJ boxes.  The top and bottom holders are
identical.  There is a vertical groove on each side for this holding
wire to slide down into on the bottom one.

I ordered most of that stuff over a year ago and it was all available.
It seems that each piece costs about $18, as I remember.  My (new) drip
pan is white.  The barbie ice trays were available, too.

My RV dealer has an old Dometic microfisch on which he looks up the
parts and
part numbers.  He then calls Dometic (or the parts supplier) to see if
the are available and the current price.
