• Wiring Install Video for T-One Wiring Harness on a 2018 Mazda CX-5
  The installation videos of the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118746 on a 2017 and a 2019 Mazda CX-5 will be the same as what you'll need to do for your 2018 Mazda CX-5 so either one will work just fine. It looks like the one for the 2019 is a little longer so you might want to check that one out as it might have some more tips and tricks for the installation. You also might consider picking up the Composite Trim Removal Tool Kit # PT73HJ, if you don't already have some trim removal tools,...

• How Does Lippert Components RV Entry Door Window Frame Install to Door
  RV entry door window frames like the # LC363370 are designed to install with several screws that attach it from the inside of the RV like in the install video I attached. To remove the window frame you'll need to remove the several screws that hold the two pieces together on the inside of your current door so that it can come apart. If yours really does press together without screws you'd need to use a plastic scraper or something thin that could be used to pry up on the frame to separate...

• Is The Installation/Replacement Of A Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent Easy To Complete
  The hardest part of replacing a roof vent is definitely removing the old sealant. You'll want to use some composite tools, like part # PT73HJ, to carefully pry up the sealant without ripping up the roof membrane. You won't get all of it off but will be able to get a majority. Once you're done prying up the sealant you can wipe down the area with some rubbing alcohol to clean and prep it for new sealant. The Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat # FV802250 will come with...

• Recommended Replacemetn Plumbing Vents For A 2013 Keystone Montana 3150RL 5th Wheel Trailer
  I'm assuming you're referring to plumbing vents so I would recommend the Camco Replace-All RV Plumbing Vent Kit -Black # CAM40138 or # CAM40033 for white. Both of these kits come with mounting hardware and putty to form a tight seal to your trailer's roof, but you'll also want to use some self-leveling sealant # 34427034145-1 as well. I've attached a video below of the installation I did for the Ultra-Fab Solar-Powered Plumbing Vent # UF53-945001 to give you a better idea of how installation...

• Recommended Remote Controlled RV Roof Vent For A 2021 Forest River Vibe 34BH
  We do carry remote controlled vent options that will most likely fit your 2021 Forest River Vibe 34BH but you'll want to doublecheck the size of the cutout hole just to confirm fitment since there are a few outliers out there that use a slightly small vent than the standard, which is 14" x 14". You'll want to just remove the inner trim piece to measure the cutout hole and confirm that it is 14" x 14" in order to fit a new vent. If it's not wide enough you can also enlarge the hole to make...

• Removing Rear Trim Panels to Install Trailer Wiring on a 2014 Subaru Forester
  Installation of Curt trailer wiring harness # C56040 is going to be similar to the 2 videos I have linked. In fact it should be just about identical. Once you see how it is done you will wonder why the dealer wants to charge such a price! I do recommend a trim panel remover tool, # PT73HJ, which does make things a lot easier.

• Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For A 2022 Tesla Model Y That You Can Install At Home
  For a 2022 Tesla Model Y there is currently only one compatible hitch; the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH39FR. This custom fit hitch is designed to hide behind your bumper for a completely factory look and can be accessed by removing your knockout plate. While the install isn't too challenging it is a bit time consuming and you have to be very careful to not scratch or scrape the bumper when removing and reinstalling it. You'll definitely need some trim panel tools # PT73HJ...

• Can You Apply New Sealant to a Roof Directly Over Old Sealant & Removal of Old Sealant
  If the old sealant only has minor cracks you can use a sealant like the LaSalle Bristol XTRM Universal Self-Leveling Sealant # 34427034145-1 which is a little easier to work with than the Alpha Systems 1021 Self-Leveling Sealant for RVs # AL98KV. You need to keep in mind that adding sealant over sealant is just a quick fix and most likely temporary. You are better off getting the old sealant off and then applying the new sealant. Getting the old sealant off isn't incredibly difficult,...

• Loosening Trim Panels to Install Trailer Wiring Harness on a 2013 Honda Civic Sedan
  The best way to pull the trim panel loose on your 2013 Honda Civic to install trailer wiring is to use a trim panel tool such as # PT73HJ. These tools work much better than other tools, like screwdrivers, to remove stubborn panels gently without excessive prying. I have also linked a video showing installation of a different harness that should help you.

• Video Showing the Removal of an RV Stereo
  While we do not have a video specifically showing the removal of the Jensen Touch Screen RV Stereo JRV9000R, I have attached a video that shows the removal of a different stereo and the installation of the JRV9000R (this process starts around the 4:43 mark of the video). This should hopefully allow you to get a feel for how to remove the JRV9000R. You will need some sort of trim panel tool. If you do not have one, you can pick up the Performance Tool Pry Tool Set # PT73HJ.

• How To Determine The Correct Replacement Speakers For A 2017 Jayco Jay Flight 28BHBE Travel Trailer
  There's no guide that tells us the size or part number of the speakers installed on your 2017 Jayco Jay Flight 28BHBE travel trailer, but 6" speakers like the Furrion Marine Speaker w/ LED Lights # FMS5L2BLOEM are a pretty standard for most RV's. Typically we recommend removing the speaker and measuring the cutout hole since speakers with the same exterior measurements can have varying cutout hole requirements. That being said, you can always trim the cutout hole larger if you got new...

• Installation Instructions for a Trailer Hitch for a 2005 Mercedes E-320
  Curt trailer hitch # C11744 is not a fit for your 2005 Mercedes E-320. Curt trailer hitch # C11701 will fit. The instructions which I have linked for you state to unbolt the fascia tabs from the body. If they are true bolts then using the appropriate wrench would suffice. If they are more like clips I recommend a trim panel remover tool such as # PT73HJ to gently pry tabs.

• Removal of Travel Trailer Door Window to Replace with Lippert Entry Door Window for RV
  All of our window trim kits have screws. It is likely your window has uses an adhesive to secure your window in place since you don't see any screws. I recommend using the Performance Tool Pry Tool Set # PT73HJ to give you soft and hard nylon prying options so you don't scratch your door surface. I've have someone help secure the window from the opposite side so you don't drop it when the frame comes loose. Then you can use the Lippert Components Replacement Window Frame with Seal...

• Removing Fasteners that Hold the Front Fascia on a 2012 Chevy Colorado
  If they are the type of fasteners that you can pry out then the best tool for the job is a fastener removal tool # PT73HJ. It works much like the claw end of a hammer. You will be able to pry out the fasteners with ease using a tool like this. Since many of the fasteners now a days are plastic use caution when removing them so they do not break.

• Removing Entry Door Window Frame that Doesnt Have Screws
  While the Lippert Components Replacement Window Frame with Seal for RV Entry Doors # LC363369 uses screws to attach the two pieces of the frame when installed not all of the frames like this use this method. Your sounds like it's two pieces that just pop together. You'd have to pry the inside frame off with a pry tool similar to the # PT73HJ.

• Can The Roadmaster Invisibrake Be Installed In The Rear Compartment Of A 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler
  I spoke with Brad, one of our installers here that's done quite a few Invisbrake installs, and he stated that box under the front driver seat is tucked in further than you'd think so you'd have to purposefully kick it and it wouldn't be an accident. That being said, it is possible to mount the compressor box in the back of your Wrangler but you'll most likely need to get some additional 1/4" nylon vacuum line to go from the box to the brake booster in the engine compartment and also some...

• Replacement Unit For A Furrion FWH09AFA RV Tankless Water Heater
  The FWH09AFA just refers to the main unit of the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR93FR, not including the access door. Realistically if the unit is the only problem then I would just only order it and reuse your current access door. You'll have to scrape off the sealant and butyl tape that was used to secure the door and unit to the trailer. I typically use some composite pry tools # PT73HJ to scrape this off without scratching the wall of the trailer and ruining the paint job. You'll...

• Difficulty Accessing Factory Plug to Install Trailer Wiring Harness on 2018 Honda CR-V
  It looks like you will need to pry up that trim piece around the hook. Under it there is likely going to be a screw or something that is holding it on. I recommend using something plastic to pry out that trim piece because a metal tool could damage something. We do have some trim panel tools, # PT73HJ, if you want to try those. Keep in mind that if this is the side panel it only has to be pulled out enough to reach the factory wiring harness that is behind it. Where is that hook located?...

  The wiring adapter you will need to install a brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake Controller # 90195 on 2016 Ford F-550 Cab and Chassis is the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers # 3034-P. This adapter plugs into the connector behind your vehicle's dashboard. To reach the connector, first locate the notch in the access panel in the center of the dash, near the passenger side. Using a trim panel puller, like the # PT73HJ, carefully pry the panel...

• Tool used to Remove the Rivets that Hold the Taillight Assembly on a 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan
  That handy-dandy tool you see in the videos is a trim panel tool. We have # PT73HJ as an option that you could use. I advise against using vice grips as it will tear up the pins. You could use a smaller claw hammer if available. A very small pry bar (crow bar) could work as well. I suppose you could wedge two spoons under it and pry it out that way. Depending on how tight they are you might bend the spoons. If you had a very flat wrench it might work the same as the trim panel tool.
