Since we have to replace anyway, wife wants slide-in instead of drop-in. Is there typically any modification besides cutting the mop board required for this change? Thanks.

Were there complications with the different wiring and building up your existing cabinets (and cutting the back countertop)? Just curious before we start making any big purchases. Thanks.
