Toggle switch recommendations?

[ShawnQ]

I am in need of a toggle switch for my tilt/trim, so I can mount it on my console instead of on the side of my control box. <br /><br />I need one that has an up/down function, not an on/off function.<br /><br />What is a specific name of a switch like this? I have been looking around town, and can only find an on/off, nothing that automatically centers itself.<br /><br />Does anyone sell one that is stainless or corrosion resistant?<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Shawn

Shawn,<br /><br />The designation for the switch you want is:<br /><br />"Momentary On-off-On"<br /><br />Go to this site and look at item # 1675:<br /><br />www.surplusunlimited.com

The answer man...thanks again.<br /><br />That's what I'm looking for, just wasn't sure what to search for.<br /><br />Now I need a nice looking stainless steel plate with name tags on it for each switch, think this place has one?<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Shawn

Shawn,<br /><br />They won't have the plate, but they do have the name tags. Search on that site using the words "identi plates".<br /><br />You can usually find some pre rigged switch panels on e-bay. Use the search words: switch panel.<br /><br />Also, this guy http://www.kv-e.com/ usually has some panels. He is a regualr on the board here, known as "Valv".

crestcraft,<br /><br />The boat only cost me $500, and I put a $400 nissan 90hp engine on it. SO, basically, I've only got $900 into it. The boat is only to hold me over for a year, probably less, and I'll be done building my own boat. So, I'd like to keep the cost down...but at the same time, I dont want it to be a POS. Clean wiring is a must of mine, I hate having a birds nest of wiring. It is also a fishing boat, so, I'm not really looking for looks, just function for the most part.<br /><br />BUT, I may think about the carbon fiber on the boat I'm building..
