1971 Tradewind a/c intallation

I am interested in doing a factory style air conditioning installation in my 1971 tradewind. Unfortunetly I don't know exactly where it goes! Can anyone out there give me the measurements? I would really hate to cut the hole in the wrong place! I have been told that it is prewired and the condensate tube is in place and that I will have to get the proper drain pan, but I still dont know exactly where the hole goes. Any help would be...ah...most helpful!

What length is your trailer ?

This is from a 1971 TW 25'

It is centered on the partition between kitchen and bedroom, 12' on each side. Length wise: it occupies fully the mid panel.

Now, that's the cover, it's much bigger than the hole.
As far as we remember, the hole is pretty small. It just lets the wires and some ventilation in.

It is a 25 footer and I am deathly afraid of cutting the hole in the wrong spot. I will be installing a penguin. Thanks for your help!
