Indicators, the little led do-dads on my

boat's dashboard are wearing out and I think I ought to replace it

I have learned that racer boats have the pegs that stick outta the dash top side as trim indicators
probly don't need that
I am faaaar toooo the novice to need such a thing
I do hope that somebody makes an indicator that could be like a pair of black needles
on a white face? like the way the outdrive indicator is?
anyone think such a animal exhists?

Sure. Stainless Marine makes all the ones you mentioned, and then some. They also make the best cables (No Slack) that shows you every bit of movement, whereas the old style cables have built in slack, your tabs could move almost 1/2" before it shows on the indicator.. Get the best Leave the rest...

a circular guage for trim tabs
that uses some electro-mechanical needles?
