Is it safe to drill holes in the side of my fridge?

Hi,

I'm putting some beer taps on my fridge, and was wondering if it will be safe to put them on the side of the fridge. I've modified a fridge like this before by going through the door, but if there are no cooling pipes etc. in the side I'd rather go through there as it's stronger than the door.

Here's the fridge: FRU17B2JW Frigidaire 16.7 Cu. Ft. Large Upright All Refrigerator with 5 Door Bins: 4 Wire Shelves

Is there any way to tell if the side is just insulation?

thanks in advance.

sure if you don't want your fridge to work anymore! lol

Obviously I do still want it to work, and I drilled a single hole in the side of my last one, but I've never been able to verify whether some fridges have cooling pipes in the side walls or if that's just a superstition...
