Even better get the stalk mounted ones - like a turn signal. Nicer and I believe cheaper.

I bought the Teleflex "turn signal stem" style switches for trim and jackplate from Rick in the Spring, I LOVE them. Doesn't matter where the wheel is turned, they're right there where you need 'em.

THe Eddie Marine switches won't work on a hydraulic system, eventually the cords will get wrapped tight around the hub. And the Eddie switches do have the cord.:cool:

I knew that, however there is a solution to every proble. Get a qucik disconnect wheel. after a couple hours, disconnect, untangle and back in business.

Just a thought!

I'm not sure how well the quick release hubs would work in a marine environment though. They don't last all that long in racecars before they start to get a bit loose. :cool:

It is 15 miles up river to the damn here and on a hard run up there I would have to unwind my cable for the trip back. Now you might not think that is to inconvenent. but my cable is 8 ft long! I was wanting a CRT at the time Gelbraght and Fountain were having a little fight and they were not on the market. I built my own made 5 of them Only problem is they cost twice as much as the CRT on Howies site. Not very market able but they are Bad ass.3 switches on three spokes you have a switch under your thumb all the time.

Pretty Slick, Nice clean setup !
I also see those Pioneer waterproof speaker, THOSE ROCK, they have som on the TRUEST sound I have heard, very efficent also. They kick the crap out of the Bose speakers. How much power ya thumpin those with ? ANd what kinda boat is that?

Ricky, I can see that being a issue, slop in the wheel a big NO NO.

those speakers are just covers I had to take the stereo out , not enough charging current. HAve a Mad ECU and the pump and injectors need about all I can give it. 1988 Mirage MVP boat is what I have Hauls pretty good another reason to dump the tunes couldn't hear it over the wind and motor! Go hauling by the beach or bar the people on the bank could jam I couldn't hear a thing!
