Purchased a VinoTemp Wine Cooler to convert to wineador...

AQUADGIO1200

Hey fellas....i just purchased a VinoTemp 12ct winecooler that i plan to convert to a wineador (ran out of room in my 150ct humi)...bought if off craiglist for 25.00...they guy said the front display didnt work.....but little did he know that he gave me a good working one!! I plugged it in and works like a charm...i can change the temp from 62-70 and has a built in light that can be manualy turned on. My question is.....whats the best way to go about making it into a good working wineador?? Do i need to line it with spanish cedar? Or can American red cedar work fine? Since here in San Diego...no one seems to sell Spanish Cedar...i would have to order it online. Right now i have sealed off the drain plug and placed 2 cigar boxes and a digital hygrometer/thermometer & 2 humidifiers. Since i just bought it yesterday...the interior of the cooler smelled like a cooler, thats the reason why i placed 2 cigar boxes to get someone of a cigar box smell to penetrate the interior. I left the wineador unplugged last night with the hygrometer/thermometer inside to see what kind readouts i would get. This morning the readings were 70 degrees and 62 RH and thats with the interior being empty (no cigar boxes or humidifiers & metal shelves). To make the wineador work correctly do i need to have it plugged in so it can use the built in fan to control the temp? Would the cooling cause to much moisture or humidity? (like a refrigerator) This is my first project...so some questions might seem noobish...but would like your expert advise. Below are pictures and my checklist of my plans...please feel free to add to anything that i might be doing wrong. (1) Line with Spanish Cedar if possible, (2) purchase kiln dried cigar trays, (3) Cigar oasis, (4)digital hygrometer/temp, (5) Fill with lots of cigars. Anything else? Pictures:
