Remove top and bottom grills and disconnect exhaust pipe, may have to drill pop rivet out, then it should slide out disconnecting everything else on your way out...thats how I took mine out, anyway :ok
Mmm what's that strange smell from my exhaust...

Well if its a devon original fitment then at the back of the fridge you should see an alluminium funny shaped ! short tube with some flexi flue coming off this to the outlet plate on the van side, usually you can just lift/wiggle this ally tube/pipe up (1/2") to then come away from the fridge bit,
Im sure this could be written simpler in less words but hey ho.
glad you found those self tappers but do check the other side as Im sure they went through there as well and maybe carpeted over

Thanks for that. Other side is carpeted over and I guess it probably covers some more self tappers. Will see if I can trace them through somehow - don't really want to pull the carpet off (glued I think). It's all original.

sometimes the front feet were screwed down, but if you got the 2(i think) out of the rh side and there is nothing under it then wiggle it, they are a er well 'snug!' fit then you will have to peel a bit of carpet back, besyt of luck
