i know the throttles them selves are easy to reconfigure but I wonder how hard it is to flip the trim switch to use these for a RH application...???

paul I do believe its just as easy .mercury marine also sells just the white throttle lever with the red part switch on it .and it would go left or right

Tigweldersm 11-23-2014 09:39 AM

I believe this is set up to be used in a RH application.

Per your pictures the trim switch is set for your left thumb.

How can you tell what is the front of the shifter? If the levers are slanted backwards then it is for a RH application? If they slant forward it is for a LH application.

Baja226sport 11-23-2014 01:04 PM

No. Handles always slant toward the front.

Tigweldersm 11-23-2014 01:18 PM

Got it. So this would be for a PORT drive application. Correct.

Most of the time, but they can be used either way. It really depends on the angle of the mounting location and dash layout.
Either way, they can be taken apart and reassembled in any configuration fairly easily.

Thanks Griff.

I know they can be taken apart Griff. They are actually meant from the factory to angle forward though. I have seen people install in the opposite direction. Not sure if it is for function or not. Sure looks dumb. Anyway what I was saying is that even if you changed the configuration the trim switch would still be on the wrong side of the handle. So I was asking what is involved in flipping the switch. I did it on a set of gaffrig controls and the switch had soldered connections which was one adventure but the switch was flush mount in the handle and you just had 2 screws tho take the switch plate off. I don't see any screws or anything on this handle.

hey sport i have recondition a few of these zero effort controls and everything about them is simple. the twim switch has two screw to disassemble it just remove red adhesive cap and pull wires with switch out or pull wire out enough resoldier its much quicker to switch around. To switch around levers disassemble on nice clean towel in case ball bearings drop out. remove first two plates for throttle while holding shift lever plates together shouldnt take no more than a hour to do. hope that helps

I know how to do the configuration, and I have done the trim switches on the Gaffrig and Livorsi controls. I just wasn't sure about this switch.
