Electrical, are there any other box less type oultets?????
Not linking these outlets. Just slide the wire until it cuts the insulation. I haven't seen any other box less options but made a better connection and got it working. I'd say I'm getting hot fixing the refridge outlet but being held up getting to the junctions under the underbelly cover. Found out by the hardware used, having a 8 point RV bit is probably a good investment to have on hand.
Depending on the size, typically a #1 or #2 square bit will work fine on those.

They've been using those for decades. Also used in some mobilehome applications.
As bill3kirk said a #2 square bit works fine on those screws

Just a regular torque bit....get them almost anywhere..
I have honestly n]ever seen one of those fasters in over 40 years. Torques wouldn't work but the square head did ( I'm glad someone mention it as I was eyeing the bowie knife), lol! Thankfully, I found the issue after getting the schematic from jayco. The rear red feed wire was suppose to be in the circuit box not piggy backed off one of those cheap outlets.in front. It was so packed the back couldn't even be locked to keep the wire pressed. No wonder I kept losing power or had low voltage in the rear. But glad its fixed.
Definitely learned something new. They make the head so you can't grip them either, so I just assumed a special bit was needed. So far only see them on the under belly.

I didn't realize there were screws for the square bit that had multiple bit connections until I saw yours and counted the prongs. Yep, everyone is correct in saying use the square bit.
I was going to say that screw was a torx one but those are only 6 pronged. Learned something new today.
I recently bought a screwdriver off Amazon and love it. I like having the bits stored in the handle and it took awhile to find something good. This one not only has all the bits you are likely to encounter but it also changes its length. You can snap the blade in the handle at multiple locations making it long or short. Love that feature!
