  Hello Vern, The Piranha LED Trailer Tail Light w/ Chrome Bezel - Stop, Tail, Turn - Red Lens # PE76XV does not come with a mounting gasket, instead you will want to use Loctite RTV 5699 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker - Grey - 2.7-Fl Oz Tube # LT37464 to make a small bead around the outer flange to seal things up. The # PE76XV does come with the chrome bezel. What kind of trailer are you installing these tail light on?

• Thule HideAway Awning Installation on 2015 Forest River R Pod
  The Thule HideAway Awning - Direct Mount - Waterproof - 80 sq ft # TH490011 will mount directly to the side of your 2015 Forest River R-Pod trailer with the included mounting brackets and hardware. It will require drilling directly into a stud/support location to give you the weight support needed. I recommend using silicone in the locations where you install the brackets as outlined in the attached instructions. You can use either # 0160297 or a silicone gasket maker like # LT37467...

• What Sealer Is Used For The Kodiak XL ProLube Kit # XLPROLUBE1980KIT?
  The Kodiak XL ProLube Kit # XLPROLUBE1980KIT no longer requires the sealant like you saw in the instructions. If you prefer to use some the Loctite # LT37464 is all you will need as the manufacturers still recommends using some sealant to reduce the likely hood of issues down the road. This helps to prevent oil leakage as the different materials expand and contract due to heat.

• How to Install the Blue Ox Tail Light Wiring Kit on a 2017 Jeep Wrangler
  In order to install the Blue Ox Tail Light Wiring Kit part # BX8869 in the back of the taillight housing on your 2017 Jeep Wrangler you will need at least 1" of space in order for the bulb and socket kit to work. I did some research and looked at a few of the taillight assemblies for your Jeep and believe you should have absolutely no problem using this kit. 1) Starting in the engine compartment of the towed vehicle, run the 26 ft. harness through the fire wall, under the driver's side...

• How Does Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells Attach to Trailer Roof
  The Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y02-480B installs by drilling holes into your roof and anchoring the tracks on the inside of your Little Guy Silver Shadow. You'll want to use a sealant like the Loctite Silicone Gasket Maker # LT37464 to help prevent water getting inside your trailer. The system itself has a 220 lb weight capacity but you'll want to proceed with caution because the roof of your trailer will be the limiting factor for your application. You can actually...

• Can Thule Square Crossbars Be Installed on Truck Bed Camper Topper
  For your application I recommend checking out the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y02-480B as it comes with a track system and aero-style crossbars that help to cut down more on wind noise and drag than the classic square crossbars. Another reason why is because Thule doesn't have any type of system compatible with your crossbars. This comes with all of the hardware needed for the installation as well as coverings for the holes to help prevent any leakage when it rains,...

• Can a Roof Cargo Box Have Thule Hardware Installed to Fit Wider Crossbars
  We have recommended in the past for people in similar situations as yours to modify their boxes and install the Hardware part # TH04997 which has much wider U-bolts compatible with factory and aftermarket aero style crossbars. You basically would have to drill new holes in the box and then use all of the included hardware to secure the mount kit to the box. You will want to space the holes that you drill in the box the same distance apart as the crossbars of your roof rack. For sealant...

• Mounting Method for Stromberg Carlson Extend-A-Shower RV Shower Curtain Rod EXT-3542S
  The Stromberg Carlson Extend-A-Shower RV Shower Curtain Rod # EXT-3542S weighs under 3-lbs and even with the small additional weight of the shower curtain itself should be fine for installation in your shower even if a wall stud or other structural member is not available at the mounting point. It would obviously be better to have such a mounting point to install just about anything on an RV but the included 2-inch stainless steel mounting screws will work for most applications. I would...

  The Better Bath Single Bowl RV Kitchen Sink - 25" Long x 15" Wide - Stainless Steel # LC421572 comes with the same mounting hardware you pointed out comes with sink # LC385313. I also recommend using the Loctite RTV 5699 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker - Grey - 2.7-Fl Oz Tube # LT37464 to seal the sink to the underside of the counter.

• Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendations for a 2017 Jeep Cherokee Latitude
  For your 2017 Jeep Cherokee Latitude Curt hitch # C13172 is a great option. Once installed you will only be able to see the receiver portion of the hitch. Installation of this hitch is not difficult and I am confident you can perform the installation at home. The bolt leaders do indeed come with the hitch. I have included links to the instructions and a video showing an example installation for you. Installation required 8mm, 10mm, 13mm, and 21mm sockets, a 3/4 inch socket, tape measure,...

• Roof Vent with 110V-AC Powered Fan for 6 x 12-Foot Diamond Cargo Trailer
  Most square trailer roof vents are a common size, 14 x 14, and they require a roof opening of 14-1/4 x 14-1/4-inches. If your vent measures this approximate size then you can safely presume you have one of these standard-size roof vents. We do offer a 110V-AC powered fan in this size that is shown on the linked page, part # V2128SP-01 from Ventline. This vent features a manual-lift lid, on/off switch, insect screen and it also includes an internal trim piece (the garnish) for a clean installed...

• Replacement Roof Vent for 1992 Palomino Filly Pop-Up Camper
  We have many types of trailer roof vents and vent parts but we do not have a way to look up the vent originally installed in your 1992 Palomino Filly so I suggest confirming the dimensions. Most often square roof vents are 14 x 14-inches and fit roof openings that are generally 14-1/4 x 14-1/4. Based on photos of your pop-up that I could find it appears you do have a 14 x 14 vent so I linked for you our entire range of trailer vents in this size. We have manual vents, 12V powered vents...

  Yes, the internal damper in the Ventline Exterior Wall Vents for RV Range Hoods, parts # V2111-55 in black and # V2111-13 in white, opens automatically when you turn on the exhaust fan in your RV's kitchen range hood. These vents also have a locking feature for the damper that lets you keep it secured in the closed position. Two swiveling latches, one on each end of the damper panel, allow you to secure the damper for off-season storage or when in extreme temperatures when you will want...

• Is Drilling Required to Install Rear View Safety Backup Camera System w/Side Cameras
  The Rear View Safety Backup Camera System with Side Cameras # RVS-062710 comes with hardware to attach the cameras to the outside of the trailer. This would require drilling into the outer body of your Airstream. If you go with this system along with the quick tow # RVS-2133, I recommend putting a dab of silicone sealant # LT37464 at the holes so no water can get in. You would also presumably have to drill holes to run the wiring. The side cameras do have gaskets so you would not have to...

• Recommended Path to Connect 4-Way Wiring Harness on 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander to 7-Way ETBC7
  I can help you route your 4-way to the # ETBC7. First thing I would search the cargo area where your wiring harness connector is for a factory grommet to get the 4-pole through. If there is no grommet the best thing to do is to drill a small access hole to run the wires through. I recommend using the snap bushing grommet # SWC8055 and instead of splicing into your vehicles harness (voids the warranty), I recommend making the splice and reconnection in the 4-way to 4-way loop # HM48145....

• Available Products for Sealing RV Sink Drain
  If the sink in your 1996 Jayco pop-up camper trailer is leaking where the drain and sink bottom join together then you can use plumber's putty to re-seal it unless something is actually broken. This material is typically grey in color and can be found at any local hardware store. It remains soft and flexible (it does not dry or cure to a solid condition like a glue or caulk) so it keeps a good seal. If you also need to seal the sink's outer mounting flange to the countertop you can usually...

• Is Drilling Needed to Install a Powered Trailer Wiring Harness in 2015 Chevrolet Malibu
  Routing the 12V power wire for a powered trailer wiring harness like the Tow Ready T-One # 118602 may require some drilling. Often there will be existing holes and/or wiring grommets that can be used but in some instances drilling a new hole will make the installation process easier. You just want to be very careful to check the area where you intend to drill to ensure there are no critical components behind it, such as other wiring, a brake line or a fuel line. If you do end up drilling...

• Recommended Silicone Sealant for Installing Optronics RV Porch and Utility Light RVPL7CB
  The Optronics RV Porch and Utility Light # RVPL7CB has a full-size metal backing plate that will protect the internal electrical components from moisture but if you like you certainly can use a thin bead of silicone rubber sealant like # LT37464 (grey), # LT37467 (black) or # 0160297 (white) around the perimeter of the base to provide additional protection. Hardware stores usually carry a range of color options including clear silicone.

• Recommended Thule Roof Rack for 2017 Audi Q7 and Mercedes OEM Cargo Container Mounting Hardware
  The Mercedes-Benz rooftop cargo boxes were made by Thule so they will absolutely fit the Thule Aero crossbars as you mentioned. For your 2017 Audi Q7 I recommend the 53 inch bars # TH711420 with the foot pack # TH460R and then fit kit # THKIT3145 confirmed to fit your vehicle. The cargo box used t-slot mounting which is not available from Thule as it was a precise fit for the dimensions of your previous rack and it will most likely not be a precision fit to the fixed mounting locations...

• Sealing Up Around a Trailer Tail Light Using Tail Light # STL42RB On an Airstream Trailer
  You could use a gasket maker like # LT37464. You would just need to put a small bead of the gasket maker around the outer most flange on tail light # STL42RB. I have included a picture to show you what this would look like. You could also use silicone # 0160297 around the light and at the mounting holes after you have installed it.

• Recommendation for Trailer Hitch and Wiring on a 2020 Acura MDX
  It can be a little challenging to find a good way to attach a wiring connector to a trailer hitch that has the hidden crosstube so since it sounds like you're wanting to tow with your 2020 Acura MDX I do recommend going with the Draw-Tite # 75225 because they do have that attached bracket to make it a whole lot easier plus it looks really clean too. For wiring it's hard to beat the T-One # 118628 simply because it has the highest amp ratings and we have found the Tekonsha wiring harnesses...
