That seems like the logical choice to locate the device, since there's an available power supply there as well.

Drilling a hole in the correct place isn't that hard, once you get over the idea of drilling into something that you paid an arm and a leg for...
Sealing around the cable is the biggest thing. Do not skimp on price for a good UV resistant sealant. And...do not use a 1" bit...

Hopefully, this pic will answer your questions about the smartplug and why it is better than our twist-lock system currently used. These features apply to both the 30 amp and 50 amp Smartplug systems.

Thanks...makes you wonder why the RV industry is dragging their feet converting to this system. I have seen several Class B and trailer manufacturers use this system but none in the Class A line.
