I changed mine, added tabs to hold knockout in place. Other than pulling the desk screws, was easy straight forward job.

I killed breaker to converter during job so I had A/C and music.

One note of caution to those who keep units plugged in : It is very easy to assume battery is okay as you unplug and hit road. I found out battery was failing when I stopped for gas 30 miles from home with running lights on. Vegas would not turn over, started RV generator put battery charger on boost and it barely started. If battery too low, emergency start will not work. I have since stuck a volrmeter in cigarette lighter and will unplug, let sit and look at reserve voltage before start. Is usually 12.6/7. Battery I replaced was 8.9 unplugged, so battery was really tired at 3 years. I had used cig plug meter in my other road vehicles and just stupidly ignored RV.
