Bought this set to help install the hitch wiring in my car. I’ve had the bargain tools before and thrown them away after one use. These tools will be used for quite a while as they are sturdy and very useful.



by:

Only one tool was needed to remove my rear bumper (the skinny fork), but it helped a lot.

The tools worked well for the hitch install in removing the bumper panel. Ive gone on to use them for other jobs requiring non-scratch prying tools

@RobertJ Thanks for sharing, Robert. Glad to hear you are still happy with your purchase. Come back anytime you need anything!

I finally decided to get actual trim tool instead of using flat blade screw drivers. I am glad I did. It was much easier to remove the trim and these tools make it almost impossible to put a big gouge in the trim like I have in the past. It is worth the price. I expect these will last a very long time.

Made it extra easy to remove the trim from my 2024 RAV4 to install my trailer wiring harness.

Base plate was a breeze to install, I followed the etrailer video and install was perfect. I have 3000 miles of towing using it with no issues.

Found the perfect tool to remove the covers on my 2019 Highlander's roof rack so I could install my cross pieces. Sturdy yet left no marks after prying the pieces away from the rack.

  • 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Trailer Brake Controller Installation
    Vehicle passenger compartment plastic trim panels, like the dash panel on your Trailhawk that comes off to give you access to the brake controller port, usually have tabs that fit into slots or metal fasteners, in addition to the visible retaining screw. Once the visible fasteners are removed it may still require a bit of force to release the panel, especially on a brand new vehicle. Often a trim panel tool set like # PT73HJ can help loosen things up. These plastic tools will be less...

  • Can Grease Be Added To The Viking Series Wheel Cap To Make Removal Easier
    Hey David, You could put some grease on the mounting tabs of the Replacement Center Cap for 15" or 16" Aluminum Viking Series Wheels # TA65FR to make it come off easier, but you'd also be running the risk of the cap possibly falling off from road vibration. I personally recommend just using a composite pry tool # PT73HJ to press in the mounting tabs and pop off the cap without scratching it.

  • Recommended Replacement Roof Vent For An Airstream Flying Cloud 23D Travel Trailer
    Yes, the Ventline Vanair Trailer Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # VP-543SP is the same as the 690266-01 that's already in your Airstream. I recommend picking up some plastic trim panel tools like # PT73HJ to help pull up the old sealant without scratching up the roof. You'll want to use some butyl tape # AL28FJ around the mounting flange and some non-sag sealant # 344270341437-1 over the top of the flange to get a nice waterproof seal.

  • 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...

  • Where Can I Get a Trim Panel Remover Tool to Install Trailer Wiring on a 2013 Honda CR-V
    A trim panel remover tool is not included with trailer wiring harness # 118561. We have # PT73HJ which is a basic design set of several tools that would come in handy.

  • Recommended Hub Cap For The Kenda Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Tire w/T09 Aluminum Wheel # AM34659
    Hey Tyler, I believe I have just what you need with the Sendel Trailer Wheel Center Cap # SEN53FR. The chrome with a black center cap matches the Kenda # AM34659 for a sleek look and would be a compatible fit since it fits a 3.19" pilot hole. I would use a plastic/composite trim panel tool # PT73HJ when removing the center cap to avoid accidentally scratching the chrome.

  • 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,...

  • 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...

  • How To Remove Cracked Sealant From An RV Skylight
    Having firsthand experience with removing old sealant I can tell you without a doubt that it's a giant pain. You'll want to pick up some composite trim tools # PT73HJ to pry the sealant off of the roof membrane. You'll take the flat end of one of the tools and scrape towards the skylight being careful not to pull on the roof membrane and tear it. This will take a bunch of time and patience. I typically press up against the sealant and try to rock the tool side to side to help cut through...

  • 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...

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • How To Remove Trim From Furrion RV Microwave On a Riverside Retro 135 RV
    There are a couple of different trim kits from Furrion but it sounds like you have the Kit # FMSM09SSTK which presses onto the brackets that attach to the microwave. This trim pulls off the front to gain access to the screws which hold the microwave in place. A Trim Wedge Kit # PT73HJ would aid in the removal. You can see in the video I linked near the bottom of the page how the kit presses into place and is held in the tabs. They also offer trim kits which are held in place with screws...

  • 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 Trim 2015 Ram 1500 Plastic Bed Rail Cover to Make Space for Stake Pocket Anchor
    The front stake pocket on your 2015 Ram 1500 is hidden under the plastic rail cap but there should be an outline or slight indentation in the plastic to show you where to make your cutout. I read some online comments from owners who said that slipping a plastic trim tool like those in # PT73HJ under the cap makes it easier to cut out the part that covers the stake pocket. You can use a utility knife or a small rotary tool if you have one.

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Is an Extension Cable Needed to Install Hopkins Backup Camera on a Nissan Titan with a Crew Cab
    The wiring harness that comes with the Hopkins backup camera # HM50002 is 19 feet, 7 inches long. Depending on how it is routed you may or may not need to extend that length for installation on your truck. There is a 5 foot extension cable, # HM3100504060, and a 25 foot cable, # HM3100504061. An extra 5 feet is probably all you would need if you needed any at all. the tool in question was likely a type of trim panel tool.

  • Brake Controller and Wiring Harness for an RV Built on a 2016 Ford E-450 Van Chassis
    Your 2016 Ford E-450 van chassis/RV will use brake controller wiring harness # 3034-P. Ford only makes this van chassis for the RV and emergency vehicle industries now but the 2016 chassis is the same as the 2014 model year which was the last year it was available to the general public. On the 2016 the factory plug is located behind the coin tray, above the radio, in the center console (see picture). For a brake controller I recommend the P2 # 90885 because it is easy to set up and use...

    Based on the pictures you provided it looks like you have an older Ventline manual vent with a fan so the Ventline E-Z Lift Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # V3094-601-00 you were looking at would just be the newest version and would make a great replacement if you're happy with a manual vent over a powered one. To replace your current vent you'll need to scrape off the old sealant first. I recommend using a composite tool like # PT73HJ and really taking your time so that you don't...

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.
