Sure Donna, I bought a standard RV 6 gal. manual ( not self lighting ) water heater,
then cut a hole in the side at floor leval,I set the heater in place and made a cardboard templet,then using the templet built a plywood box,or plug as it's known in fiberglass
to cast the peice, then using bondo body filler I filled in the inside corners to fit the heater door, took it too a fiberglass guy and he made me the glass piece, then I put it in place and glassed it to the body. Wayne
