The pad sits low in the dash, so it doesn’t crowd your controls or get in the way when you’re running the boat. Each button has a comfortable feel, making it simple to make quick trim tweaks as conditions change. On a quad-engine rig, having trim control laid out neatly in one spot makes the whole boat feel easier to manage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"564\" data-end=\"567\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"569\" data-end=\"1116\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"569\" data-end=\"585\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"585\" data-end=\"588\"\u003e    • \u003cstrong data-start=\"614\" data-end=\"638\"\u003eQuad-Engine Trim Pad\u003c\/strong\u003e – Individual up\/down trim control for all four engines.\u003cbr data-start=\"694\" data-end=\"697\"\u003e    • \u003cstrong data-start=\"723\" data-end=\"745\"\u003eFlush-Mount Design\u003c\/strong\u003e – Low-profile fit that keeps the dash clean.\u003cbr data-start=\"790\" data-end=\"793\"\u003e    • \u003cstrong data-start=\"819\" data-end=\"840\"\u003eGen I DTS (2007+)\u003c\/strong\u003e – Made for first-generation quad-engine DTS setups.\u003cbr data-start=\"892\" data-end=\"895\"\u003e    • \u003cstrong data-start=\"921\" data-end=\"939\"\u003eOEM Connectors\u003c\/strong\u003e – Factory plugs that snap in tight and stay secure.\u003cbr data-start=\"991\" data-end=\"994\"\u003e    • \u003cstrong data-start=\"1020\" data-end=\"1044\"\u003eHelm-Friendly Layout\u003c\/strong\u003e – Buttons positioned where your hand naturally rests near the controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1118\" data-end=\"1121\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1123\" data-end=\"1312\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1123\" data-end=\"1154\"\u003eEngine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1154\" data-end=\"1157\"\u003e    • Digital Throttle and Shift Gen I (2007+)\u003cbr data-start=\"1223\" data-end=\"1226\"\u003e    • Quad engine\u003cbr data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1266\"\u003e    • Single-station helms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1314\" data-end=\"1317\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1728\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1355\"\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Practical Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1355\" data-end=\"1358\"\u003eTrim adjustments get a lot easier when everything sits right in the dash. Each engine can be trimmed independently without fumbling for extra switches or shifting your grip around the helm. The pad keeps the dash tidy and helps you stay focused when balancing the boat on plane or running in rough water. On a quad setup, that quick access makes a noticeable difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1730\" data-end=\"1733\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1735\" data-end=\"2006\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1735\" data-end=\"1750\"\u003eWhy Buy OEM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1750\" data-end=\"1753\"\u003eOEM pads plug straight into the DTS harness and handle vibration, spray, and sun without wearing out early.
