I have a fireplace in my 2012 Cougar 318SAB - installed by the dealer but I had to take it out to change the cable for my living room TV due to adding satellite connections, and wanting the cable to feed from the outside. It looks like it's a relatively simple AC connection. Mine is stored where the two cabinet doors were below the TV/radio. Both doors were removed. It works great but I wish it had either a variable speed fan, or a two position switch for higher air movement.
