The "quieting kit" consists of two pieces of flexible hose to attach to the input and output of the pump. Supposedly the white flexible 18" sections of water hose are supposed to reduce/eliminate vibrations from the pump that are transmitted to the hard plastic plumbing lines which "hammer against the trailer components".
Although it helps, that "kit" won't stop the noise. Do a forum search for "noisy water pump" or "water pump" and you'll find a number of threads about this problem. It's not just related to your specific trailer application, all 12 volt water pumps tend to transmit vibrations and pretty much make far too much noise for their size.
Good Luck.
