Same familiar layout, just more reach. If you’ve ever come up a little short running wires to the console, this one solves that problem. Trim is built right into the handle, the warning horn is already there, and the extra harness length gives you more flexibility when rigging wider boats or center consoles. It’s old-school in the good way—simple, proven, and easy to live with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"585\" data-end=\"588\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"590\" data-end=\"608\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"609\" data-end=\"1113\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"612\" data-end=\"642\"\u003eHandle-Mounted Trim Switch\u003c\/strong\u003e – Lets you control trim without taking your hand off the handle.\u003cbr data-start=\"707\" data-end=\"710\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"713\" data-end=\"742\"\u003eTwenty-Foot 8-Pin Harness\u003c\/strong\u003e – Extra length helps when the console is farther from the transom.\u003cbr data-start=\"809\" data-end=\"812\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"840\"\u003eBuilt-In Warning Horn\u003c\/strong\u003e – Integrated horn means one less component to wire separately.\u003cbr data-start=\"903\" data-end=\"906\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"909\" data-end=\"944\"\u003eFront-Mount Trim Leads Included\u003c\/strong\u003e – Power trim leads are already in place for a front trim switch.\u003cbr data-start=\"1009\" data-end=\"1012\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"1015\" data-end=\"1048\"\u003eTraditional Mechanical Design\u003c\/strong\u003e – Straightforward mechanical control with no electronic modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1115\" data-end=\"1118\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1120\" data-end=\"1153\"\u003eEngine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1154\" data-end=\"1419\"\u003e • Mercury outboard engines with integral power trim\u003cbr data-start=\"1206\" data-end=\"1209\"\u003e • Mariner outboard engines with integral power trim\u003cbr data-start=\"1261\" data-end=\"1264\"\u003e • Force outboards forty horsepower and higher, nineteen ninety-three and newer\u003cbr data-start=\"1343\" data-end=\"1346\"\u003e • Mechanical control systems\u003cbr data-start=\"1375\" data-end=\"1378\"\u003e • Traditional eight-pin Mercury wiring\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1421\" data-end=\"1424\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"1464\"\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Practical Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1465\" data-end=\"1786\"\u003eOnce installed, this control feels familiar right away.
