There's no need to remove the wiring. There's actually no easy way to remove it from my Arctic Fox, which is probably the same in your camper.

Honestly, what I'd *like* to have is one of the new Onan 2500/2800 inverter generators - almost as quiet as the Honda, way less vibration than the OEM version, and all the pros of an onboard gen set. I'm guessing those might be a bit spendier than I'm willing to go for, though ;)
I bought one and will be installing it next week. It's taken forever to get it though. The generator should produce far less vibration because it's mounted to the base pan on vibration dampeners, plus it runs at a slower RPM. It's variable speed too.
