Blue Seas Systems makes nice switch panels. Is yours defective, or just looking to upgrade?

Just looking to upgrade but I cannot find a switch panel that contains trim switches I was hoping for a simple rocker switch panel. Yes I actually just ordered the blue sea fuse panel as I am going to rewire everything except the gauge cluster for this summer. Or can I just momentary switches separately for trim in and out ? Not my trim tabs as those work perfectly on a separate toggle I am just referring to the out drive. Thanks for your help and I'm excited to be a new member

Where are all of the v20 gurus? I've removed my old dirty switch panel as pictured above relocated the ignition to the port side of the steering and got the old trim switch out and intact. Also cut out all wires that are not for engine gauges and mounted blue sea 12 blade fuse panel and a seperate neg bus bar. I can post pics this evening if needed. The new switch panel is a 6 rocker switch with breakers with only 1 lead for + and one lead for - and then chain jumped together which makes the whole switch panel fed off of 1 fuse?

I would think you could use momentary switches, and Blue Seas probably makes some that match your panel along with the proper labels.

alright thank you, actually a friend stopped by Saturday and I noticed his switch for his flats jack is exactly what I needed so ordered one of those. Got the new switch panel mounted and all 6 switches fed individually from the fuse panel. I removed the factory daisy chains from the switches so I could individually power them. Will post pics of my progress tommorow night after the wiring I will be building 2 custom rod boxes and looking for advice on the gas tank hatch as I heard it is backed by cardboard? Anyone know of that

Not backed by card board, but after wicking up a few decades of rain and sea water it might be like card board LOL. Look forward to seeing your new wiring. I was thinking a switch like for trim tabs would be a good setup for your switches on the trim.
