This won’t suit everyone but I was tossing up between fitting cable joiners through the van wall or just making a hole. I decided upon the latter as it may have other access purposes.
I bought some plumbing bits from Bunnings to use as the hole device.
From the outside it looks like this, when plugged…
Unplugged, and perhaps I should have cleaned it up for the pic…
I made this plug (resting on my finger tip) from solid ally and fitted an ‘O’ ring for weather proofing. A large cork would also suffice…
On the inside it looks like this, just above the fridge, and is also capped…
The cap (removed here) is a standard plastic plumbing fitting…
The fittings are siliconed in place.
In use coax or other cables are poked through the hole and a bit of foam poked in the outside to keep rain/bugs out. This aspect is not very sophisticated but I expect will work. I thought of making a tiny verandah but couldn’t be bothered.

I got one from CAMEC, i don’t think they have them anymore.
I can put the TV cable and connector through, plug it up, when not in use.
