Be prepared those Deusch connectors can be a pain to run back through your conduit to the helm. I cut mine then spilced,solder and HS tubed them back into place. I called Lenco about it and they said they would implement my suggestion next year into the design of them.
DONT FORGET YOUR FUSEABLE LINK TO THE BRAIN BOX!!!!! And again I must point out.......If I'm buyin a $700 product from you, just throw the $3 fuseable link in the box dammit!!!!!

BGreene...when I put tabs on my 21, this is what I did to fit w/the swim platform...relocated the bracket from the transom to the side of the splashwell and notched out the platform...worked out well...
 Thought I had a close up pic, but this best I could find... Here's the same solution, only on my old '74...  Kept the SS frame and discarded the old plastic deck...remade out of 3/4" Starboard to fit...

HEADS UP!!!!
I just lost a tab yesterday......due to the weld. Bummer.....Whe I pulled the boat I had two guys tell me," yep, thats Lenco for ya". Im about to call em and see if they will replace it. Doesn't help me on narrowing the to-do list down for the Keys trip in 10 days though........ The only use 6 spot welds to hold the plate to the hinge. When I get it replaced Im goin straight to the weld shop for reinforcement. I'll keep you posted........

This will be interesting..Bennett has a GREAT reputation for customer service and replacing things that go wrong on their hydraulic tabs...let's see how Lenco measures up...

I know they are leaning towards,"this guy ripped it off" so they proof is on me to show them otherwise I guess All I can say is that Stuart is on the way to the Keys......don't upset me, you wouldnt like me when Im angry....

I have dealt with Bennet in the past--not such great CS or backing of their product--I know they have changed their buisness practice the last couple years because of lost buisness Like me.
As for the Lenco letting go--I have never heard of this--must have been a freak thing--cause I beat the crap out of my tabs with no issues. Here are some pictures of my tabs set- up--similar to reelapeelin. My pictures are not as good--but notched my swimstep as well.
