Steering Wheel mounted trim/tab switches

[glh]

Anyone knows where these come from? Or some similar?

They even might be communication switches...

They were on GC's 44 MTI

GL,
Check out Livorsi. They carry wheel mounted switches similar to the ones that Dana offers.

With yours you will need the ones with out the wires that go to the dash. The ones with the cables that coil up are for cable steering only. Fountain used to use wheel mounted trim a while back also.

The Fountain I had was equipped with one that had a coil cable, worked fine. The ones listed here will more than likely work I am just looking at all options.

I'd love to find the one GC has in those pics in post #1 but I have no idea of the vendor for that.

The fountain must have had cable back to the transom then. The problem with full hydrolic is that the wheel rarely comes back to center and "clocked" the same way. So if you have a cable eventually it gets all wound up and can cause a steering issue. May be telling you something you already know maybe not?

Figured that but thanks for the input.

The steering is a quick release so somewhat easy to recenter if the thing goes to much one way. Also if it turns 3 turns and is still neutral I imagine there is a problem somewhere else!

Just ordered a new steering with the switches I want.

Thanks all for your input

Latham makes a helm for full hydraulic that is without wire coils or anything showing. The contacts are hidden internally. A Very Nice, clean set up
