Sweet! Croid I just PM'ed you for more info, so check it out if you read this first.
This is the same thing I am looking to do with mine. Any thoughts on this scenario?I'm thinking of buying a that Danby fridge to put under the counter with the tower on the countertop.
There would be about 1 inch between the top of the fridge and the countertop. What's the best way to keep the lines cold since the tower is not attached to the fridge?
Can you fit a carboy in one of these without any modification?
You can easily fit a carboy in it without modification. You can not however fit a bucket in it without the door being slightly ajar. I've lagered in in this kegerator several times. CHEERS!
Any potential problems drilling up from the inside? Did you leave the plastic top on while drilling up? I like the idea of doing this but I was worried the top of the plastic would flex too much and possibly crack as the drill was pushing up.

No problem at all. Take a piece of wood (1x6 about a foot long) and place it on top of the refrig over the area you are going to be drilling. Have someone carefully hold the wood on the edges pressing down while you are drilling up. This will keep the top from flexing upward. You will drill a perfect hole without damaging the top.
Good luck. Drill on my friend.

Picture of my Danby door. I cut out all of the components sticking out past the door, and used aluminum foil tape. Not too concerned about looks since few will see the inside. But I do have a plexi-glass liner that is screwed on. You just can't tell in this picture. And the original rubber liner fit right back into its seal, over the edge of the cut plexi-glass.
You could use chalkboard or whiteboard paint on the inside, so that whatever you do on the inside isn't an issue. I'll probably just throw stickers on the inside piece of the door instead.
Not a difficult job. Easy to cut with a good utility knife. Just wish I hadn't spent time trying to pry the plastic of the door off. I did end up resealing it where I did that.
