I too have installed a Marinco kit on several trailers we've owned but a no cost solution that I've also employed is to cut the main service cable back so it's just long enough to reach the trailer's rear bumper where the connection to an extension cable can be made yet kept up off the ground where water could pool. This works particularly well with popups and hybrids which offer the additional protection from rain with the rear bed platform extending over the connection point.

With a travel trailer simply tuck the connection under the body of the trailer, under a slide, or within a wheelwell. Solves the problem of trying to stuff 25' of stiff main service cable back in through a mousehole and costs nothing. :B
