Hi Harvey; the DFMD35 series (same as your AFMD35121) has been discontinued. This leaves you with two options. You can either downsize to a 30k Btu unit or move up to the 40k unit. The 30k will fit in your existing space but you will have a little less heat.
If you go up to the 40k unit it will probably require enlarging your opening since it is 2" taller. You also need to match door for door or doorless for doorless when choosing the replacement. The 40k units measure 20" deep x 9" tall x 16-1/2" wide and cutout varies based on the door as seen below.
You can choose from the following based on Btu, door/doorless, and door color:
-Dometic RV Furnace - LP Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12V DC - 30,000 Btu - White Door # DMC98RR
-Dometic RV Furnace - LP Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12V DC - 30,000 Btu - Black Door # DMC38RR
-Dometic RV Furnace - LP Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12V DC - 30,000 Btu - Doorless # DMC54RR
-Dometic RV Furnace - LP Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12V DC - 40,000 Btu - White Door # DMC68RR
-Dometic RV Furnace - LP Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12V DC - 40,000 Btu - Black Door # DMC48RR
-Dometic RV Furnace - LP Gas - Automatic Pilot - 12V DC - 40,000 Btu - Doorless # DMC72ZR
