Transom Trim Switch

[MAP53]

Buying a 212. The only thing I will need that it doesn't have is a transom trim switch. How much trouble and cost is this to do? I can do it myself if I knew the wiring and a source for the switch, or I could just have it done. I heard that our local Cobalt dealer here in Louisville just closed the doors so it might be a do it yourself project.

Thanks

Look in my cobalt upgrade thread. Just buy the mercury switch. It's plug and play.

Looks like the install should be easy enough, tell me more about the "plug and play". Not having the boat here yet I can't go and look. Does it just plug into the trim pump?

Yes the harness is right there going to the pump. The switch just plugs into each end of the pump harness.you will see it's pretty easy. If you get to it and still need help just yell.my boats in the garage. I perfer the switch on the port side.

The bit I used was great and new and glad I taped it first. I didn't have any gell cracking or catching it. The screw holes I drilled backwards first so it doesn't grab the gel coat and crack. Patients is your friend.
