Subject: 7 pin tail replacement
Posted: 01 Nov 2026 at 10:35am

Has anyone tried replacing the 7-pin tail from the front of the trailer to beneath. I need to have a longer length to the back of my pickup. I'm thinking of putting in a junction box to replace the dirty Rusty wiring setup that's existing from the factory. We have a 2018 180.

Thanks!]]> Sun, 01 Nov 2026 10:35:25 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16515&PID=155734#155734 Podmods, Maintenance, Tips and Tricks : 197 Winterize-Help! https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16509&PID=155726#155726 Author: GlueGuy

I've always had good luck with aftermarket parts, from cars to travel trailers. The price difference is not worth the OEM motor.  Even aftermarket parts will have some sort of return policy if it doesn't work out.]]> Mon, 12 Oct 2026 10:53:21 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=155722#155722 Podmods, Maintenance, Tips and Tricks : Dometic 9100 Awning motor https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=155721#155721 Author: ReluctantTraveler

Dan, just my two-cents worth (if you haven't already made a decision). No, I don't have experience with the aftermarket motor for the awning, but for $124 I would take the chance if, and only if, it's not a big pain for you to replace that motor yourself and you don't mind doing it again if you have to, or if it's not very expensive to pay someone else to do it. It's worth the chance for the huge price difference ($700 is ridiculous for an awning motor). There are some things I would only trust to OEM, but since the awning is not an essential, try the aftermarket. Again, you don't want to go that route if the replacement costs for labor are high. I just moved to Bradenton this summer from MD.]]> Sat, 10 Oct 2026 08:53:15 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=155721#155721 Podmods, Maintenance, Tips and Tricks : which toilet is used in the 2015 rpod 177? https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16506&PID=155718#155718 Author: ppine
