Re: Need help please.....
The easiest way to get that done is with a CMC tilt trim,look in the iboats store, they have them there at a really good price, they aren't cheap but better than the alternative.
I have never priced an OEM tilt trim but I'll bet the CMC is less and it is bolt on with a warranty.
Install should be an hour or two.
Have had on one my boat for 3-4 years and it has never missed a beat, I spent the extra hundred on the gage and kinda wish I hadn't now as I never use it.
Once you have run it for awhile you get a feel for where the tilt should be and never look at the gage anyhow.
To go factory you would probly have to tear the engine mount apart to get it in.
On mine I put the switch right on the throttle with a hose clamp and then wrapped it with black tape,doesn't look to hokey and it works like a factory switch.
If you don't want to do that maybe post in the Yamaha forum and see what they say about adding tilt, maybe it can be done easier than I think.
