How to feed CO2 line into a kegerator conversion?

Hey there,
I'm converting a Danby All Fridge into a kegerator, and I have a 20lb CO2 tank that I don't want to part with (most people seem to put a 5lb tank right inside the kegerator, but I can't do that). As a result, I need to house the tank outside of the unit and feed the gas line into the kegerator some how. I have found a little bit of information about removing the drain plug and feeding it through there, but before I make a mess I want to ask around the forum to see what I can learn. Does anyone have photos, advice, and experience to share?
Cheers,
Tipple

Look at the schematics on the model of your fridge and get a thermal imaging gun from crappy tire. Then drill in at a convenient spot that works for you and the fridge while avoiding the cooling lines. After that use a rubber grommet to go over the sharp medal and feed your tube in.

I'll take some pics of my conversion tonight. Sounds like we have the same fridge...I drilled a hole through the hump at the back of the fridge to run the gas line through.
