@KyleS what about an entire unit replacement for a MagneTek 6300 A Model 6345? My unit has an electrical issue in the upper potion of the converter. I need one the same dimensions to go in the hole with the same capability as the Magnetek, which also charges the coach batteries.

@Brian The part you mentioned is just the converter, and I'm not 100% sure what the dimensions of the entire power center you have are. I can tell you there is almost no chance of replacing the entire panel with one of the exact same dimensions. I'll add a link below to our power centers which you can filter through by size.
