I've done that a couple of times w/good result...it takes some basic hand tools, drill-motor, minimal wiring and a little fiberglass cutting to mount the controls...oh and toss in a small tube of 4200...google up "How to install Trim Tabs" and I bet something will pop up...





Have you ever installed anything in fiberglass?...

If you decide to have someone else do it, you actually need a boat "rigger" rather than an mechanic...or a friend w/a working knowledge of such things...good luck and keep us posted on how it goes...

And you are gonna really like what the tabs do for your boat...like adding 4' to the LOA for ride improvement!!...
