• Recommended Cover For a 2023 Mercedes Sprinter 144 RV Camper
• The Classic Accessories PolyPro III Deluxe RV Cover # CA80103 is going to be the best cover we carry for the stock dimensions of your 2023 Mercedes Sprinter 144RV. This cover fits up to 20' long vans that can be up to 9'9" tall. If your van is longer due to a spare tire mounted on the rear door or other parts you would want to step up to the next larger size # CA80104. The cover can be installed by one person but if you have any roof mounted products you would need to get on the roof...

• What Wiring Kit Do I Need To Tow A U-Haul Trailer With A 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC
• Hey Megan, I can definitely help set you up with a wiring kit for your 2017 Mercedes GLC 300. Your GLC is the SUV correct? If so, I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118747. This will give you a 4-flat plug, which is the same plug used on the U-Haul cargo trailers. This is a standard T-harness so installation will be pretty straightforward. You will plug in behind the taillights on each side, and you will run a wire to the battery to power the converter. I am afraid...

• Does the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Come With a Wiring Harness for 2005 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
• The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C11823 does not come with wiring for your 2005 Mercedes-Benz S-Class so you will need to buy it separately. I recommend the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT. This is a universal wiring kit that uses zero-contact interface sensors so no cutting or splicing is required. It has instructions, but they are not vehicle specific. We do not have an installation video for a 2005 Mercedes...

• Does Using Hitch Adapter with Curt Hitch # C11030 Cut Its Capacity by 50 Percent
• When you use a hitch adapter or extender like what you mentioned with the Curt hitch part # C11030 you reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50 percent. Best option is most likely going to be to use a bike rack that fits this hitch size directly like the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z. You do not need to a stabilizer strap with this hitch though.

• Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller Install On a 2003 Mercedes ML350
• Your 2003 Mercedes ML350 is a vehicle we have never been able to put a brake controller on in our shop. It appears you are going to need the Wiring Kit # 5506 to install the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 as I do not see any wiring for a brake controller on your harness. The Wiring Kit # 5506 contains the wiring and circuit breakers required. If you are concerned about the additional wiring you might consider something like the Autowbrake # 3430001 which attaches to the trailer. As you already...

• Will A StowAway Max Cargo Carrier Fit On A Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier With 2" Receiver Tube
• Hi Daniel, The mounting point for the tire on the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening # RM-195225 sits about an inch back from the first hitch pin hole so you'll want to measure the distance from the hitch pin hole to the box of your StowAway Max cargo carrier. You can add the extra inch for the total space between the tire mounting point and cargo box and then subtract the width of the tire to determine if there's enough clearance. If you look at the tire...

• Does the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Work w/ a StowAway Max?
• Yes, it will! The Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening item # RM-195225 does work with accessories you will just need to make sure you keep the weight below 400 lbs including the carrier. We do not offer the StowAway Max so you will want to confirm that it is compatible with a hitch mounted spare tire carrier.

• Does 2023 Airstream RV Built on Sprinter Chassis Need to have Brake Controller
• If the trailer you plan on towing has brakes on it that would basically mean it's heavy enough that you are going to need to have the brakes operable which does require you to install a brake controller in your 2023 Sprinter. So for that you'd want the Prodigy P2 brake controller part # 90885 as this is a very reliable and great performing brake controller and to install you'd only need the custom harness part # 3063-P which is a fit for your vehicle as well and plugs right into factory wiring.

• Troubleshooting 4-Way Installation on 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC
• There are only two ways the # 118747 won't line up on your 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC. The first is if you have the coupe and not the SUV. The other is if you have the premium package. Neither of these are compatible with this wiring harness. If that is the case, you need the # C59236 if you have the SUV with the premium package or the # C59236 for the coupe. If that is not the case, make sure you have the correct connector on the correct side of the vehicle. The taillight wiring harness will...

• Will Thule Elite Van XT Bike Rack Fit 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
• I reached out to Thule and they still haven't had a chance to test fitment on a 2023. The Thule Elite Van XT # TH302043 has fit the MB Sprinter since 2006 so more than likely it will work with the 2023 model. You're welcome to order it and see if it works I just can't guarantee fitment until Thule gets one in to test. If you aren't willing to test it and find out the only other option is to use a hitch mounted bike rack like the Hollywood Racks Destination # HLY94FR.

• 2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 Wagon Trailer Hitch Availability
• Hey Dan, There unfortunately aren't any custom hitches available for your 2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 Wagon so to get a hitch installed you'll have to have a shop modify a hitch for you. If you need to transport something smaller, you might be interested in the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MAL74AR which installs on your raised rails and gives you a way to carry some lightweight items up to 165 lbs. Let me know if this will work out for you and I'd be more than happy to recommend any accessories...

• Can You Mix Batteries That Have Different Amp Hour Ratings
• Yes, your RV batteries should all have the same voltage and amperage rating. The reason you cant mix match different batteries like Go Power Lithium RV Battery 34282740 and Go Power Lithium RV Battery # 34282738 that have different amp ratings is due to differences in battery management systems and battery cell counts, and there may be a charging and voltage discrepancy between batteries. This will cause the highest voltage battery to charge the lowest voltage battery attempting to create...

• Will Thule Arcos Hitch Cargo Box Block License Plate of Vehicle
• Hey Blair, so when the Thule Arcos # TH25YE is installed in the hitch of your vehicle it will sit right at about 25 inches above the hitch opening. This is probably going to block your rear license plate but if you wanted to move the plate to the rear of the box you can do that or what I have found using hitch cargo carriers is that basically nobody really cares if the plate is blocked. But that could be different in your area.

• Installation of Tekonsha Prodigy RF for 2011 Mercedes-Benz GL 350 Towing Airstream Flying Cloud
• Installing the Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller w/ Bluetooth will not require any modification to your 2011 Mercedes GL 350. You already have a 7-way so the only thing you will have to do is mount the brake controller on the trailer and plug the 7-way in. The remote plugs in inside your vehicle and pairs with the brake controller. If you would like to avoid mounting a brake controller on your trailer, I recommend the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180...

• SumoSpring Suspension Enhancement Kit for 2016 Winnebago View
• Hey Ida, for your 2016 Mercedes Sprinter Winnebago View that has a dually setup we have great suspension enhancement options that fit like the SumoSprings part # SSR-338-54 but none of the leaf spring style options we carry fit the dually models. The SumoSprings give a progressive spring solution that gives more support the further the suspension is compressed so it would work great for you.

• Will 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE53 Exhaust Damage Yakima EXO Swing Away Enclosed Cargo Carrier
• Thanks for reaching out, Sean! I've looked at some photos of the exhaust on your 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE53 and if the exhaust shoots directly behind your vehicle then I think you'll potentially see some issues since the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH99MR will sit just below the bumper and the Yakima EXO Swing Away Enclosed Cargo Carrier # Y62VR doesn't have much of a rise. Some nicer vehicles have fake exhaust tips built into the bumper though, and another design I was seeing...
