I do not have an installation video on the Redline Trailer Vent, part # WHMAV2-WAVT2, but I can help you with the installation. The tools you will need are a caulk gun, drill, a 3-inch hole saw, a 3/16-inch drill bit, and a flat-tip screwdriver. The other parts you will need I have listed below in the instructions.

The # WHMAV2-WAVT2 vent is two pieces. The # WAVT2 is the 3 inch round interior vent that will need to be installed in a 3 inch diameter hole on your trailer. You will need to cut a 3 inch diameter opening on you trailer and insert the vent through the hole. Drill three 3/16-inch holes where the screws will go. I would recommend to put a sealant like # 0160297, around the lip of the round vent before attaching to the trailer with three of the # 30587 wood screws.

The # WHMAV2 will install on the exterior of the trailer and will insert into the 3 inch round vent of the # WAVT2. You can position the slotted vents on the # WHMAV2 for the best airflow and drill six 3/16-inch holes where the screws will go. Also, put some sealant on the edges of the vent before attaching to the trailer with six of the # 31071 sheet metal screws.

That is all that is necessary to install the trailer vent on your enclosed trailer.
