Can anyone tell me what's involved in installing a trim guage on my 2000 3.0 Mercruiser.

Thanks

Mount the gauge on the console. Mount the sender on the outdrive if it doesn't already have one. Run the cable from the sender to the gauge. Connect +12V (key on) and ground to the gauge. If it has a back light, connect the light to any light terminal on any of the other gauges. The same can be done with the +12V and ground connections. The only gauge that doesn't have a switched +12V connection would be the speedometer.
