It's a mod to allow the grill to be connected to the low pressure LP line that are pre-plumbed on many RVs. It's very simple and costs about $38. I ordered the 2 parts from Amazon. A Camco quick disconnect hose, http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0024E62OI/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1320989192&sr=8-1 and a Camco Olympian gas valve http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0024E62CU/ref=mp_s_a_3?qid=1320989336&sr=8-3 . I removed the gas valve and regulator from the grill, and then removed the regulator from the gas valve. I took the new Camco Olympian gas valve and removed the male quick connect fitting from it and threaded right onto the Webe
r Q gas valve. Use some gas rated teflon tape on the threads of course. Reinstall the valve on the grill. Done. Hook the quick connect hose up and you are ready to grill. It seemed that when I researched doing this mod that some people struggled with getting the right parts. The Camco parts worked perfect with no extra, unneeded fittings. I don't know why but my favorite mods involve food in one way or another???
