I found this fan online at several stores and found that it works great in our R23. I have a first aid kit on the little shelf under the oval window that is just the perfect height so when I open the window (tilt down) it stops when at level. The fan sits on the window and the exhaust port blows the air outside through the screen. 12V two speeds and quiet. I did not want to install a 12V power port in the wall so I put it inside the tilt down door for the electrical 12V fuse blocks. I wired the ground to the ground block just under the fuse door that is under the screw on access door. I ran the power lead to the fuse bock and attached it to an unused fuse slot. I installed a 10 amp fuse (rating for the power outlet) and labeled the fuse slot. The fan has a small 2 amp fuse in line under the the power tip and it only draws 13 watts. Now i just fold the door down and run the power cord in under the door to the power port and then close the door. Because there is monkey fur on both the door and the wall the cord is not smashed and it is on the side away from the shower. Now I can remove the fan and use it elsewhere if needed. It nicely sits on the shelf to the right of the window when the window is closed or open.

Another plus is an accessory used on the dash area that requires a 12V power supply can reach to the same outlet by running the cord under canvas door hood.
