It looks like they have more than enough wire there, chin, although that's an interesting tip.

Steve's point is what matters. I would abide his first suggestion and use marine crimps. Although they usually work just fine, threaded wire nuts aren't the best choice in a mobile application with the vibrations we experience, even in a low voltage fixture. Ever worked on trailer wiring? :lol:

If you don't have the correct connectors or crimpers, solder and shrink tube is a fair backup approach.

The bathroom exhaust fan https://thehomedweller.com/bathroom-exhaust-fan/ works okay but seems a bit small.
Since moisture is the most damaging thing to a RV, whenever we take a shower I like to rid the bathroom of as much moisture & as fast as possible. The fan that came with the Monty just seems too small for the job.
I am assuming the fan is 12 volt. Is there a bigger fan that would fill the entire opening & still be 12 volt? Is this a wise change to make? How do others handle this problem?

Thanks for any info guys.

There is a Heng replacement fan available that is bigger and lets you keep the top half, and a ring of LED lights that can replace the old ones.
