if the trim has relays then you can hook as many switchs as you like to the boat. if the trim does not have a relays and uses a high amp switch then its a $20 fix to add a couple so you can use low ampage switch's. paste a link to the unit you plan to purchase and we will be able to see if it comes with relays or if you need a diagram to make your own

I thought the same thing, Bubba. I Googled and came up with this. Minnesota Fishing Reports Power Up Tilt Trim ? [Outdoor Forums - Boats & Motors] Looks like an add on TnT like CMC or Panther.

Horse - Just parallel the new switch with the old ones. Run the new wires to the same connections as the old switches. Or simply move the one up front to the rear. I'm assuming the one up front is on the dash. I hope I understand your question.
