That has served me well for over 40 years now. While I'm probably technically competent enough to do this type of install myself, I'd feel better paying someone qualified to do the job and know its done correctly and if I have any issues, I'd have warranty recourse.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Be careful with the above philosophy. In our area the folks working on your RV rotate frequently. The best ones are there and more or less pick and choose the jobs they want. The rest are relegated to the group that "had experience last week doing "xyz" but have never been involved with an RV....different animal. I've seen those folks - and they are at most every dealership so be aware. I know the best techs at my dealership and my trailer always goes to the guy that's the best unless it is a specialized issue. Many of the others just figured out what a pair of dikes or a Robertson head is.
