Neil,
The short answer is yes, the longer answer is it may require some minor
reworking of the electrical connections and the mounting details.
You probably don't want to do this though, as the 16ACR has a rating of 34
amps, while the 15ACR is rated at only 28 amps.
If you go ahead with it, let me know if you need help with the electrical
mods.
