Performance & Practical Benefits
With trim control right in the dash, you don’t have to shift your grip or reach around the helm just to fine-tune the boat. The setup looks tidy, and the buttons respond the same way every time. It’s especially helpful when you’re running in changing water or dialing in the best running angle on plane. It keeps small adjustments quick and easy.

Why Buy OEM
OEM pads are built to handle real boating—vibration, spray, heat—and they plug into Mercury’s system without fuss. The fit is solid, the feel is consistent, and you avoid the weird trim hiccups that show up with off-brand parts.
