Baja wants $495.00 for 4 rocker switches..... The switch I am refering to contains the following: Trim, Trailer, Port Tab, Stbd Tab on one neat molding or whatever you call it. I bought my tabs after the fact so this switch would make for a neat clean install as it would fit where my til/trim swithes are now.
Whats up with that???

Pit is correct. Check with E.M. They can make any switch panel to your specifications, even laser etch it for the different switch functions. On top of that you can have them color anodized to match your interior. Good luck

Who gave you that price?
I replaced the switch assemblies and covers for way less than that.
Try A&S Boats in Hartford. The parts guy there is pretty good.

Great info guys;)
The price I got was from Channel Marine, they were just as shocked as I was at the price!
Not sure what the deal is...
Bob who did you get your switches from?

Mike, I got the switches from Channel, But they weren't trim switches....check on ebay i have seen them on there in the past, trim switches and mounting plate for cheap money (brand-new). I just checked for you with no luck but will keep eyes open for you.

MNOutlaw got me four new covers from his local dealer for $2.50 each. He even mailed them to me! I'm not sure if you need the entire plate or just the switches, but the price seems way out of line.

Well I need the panel and 2 switches: P&S tabs as I already have the trim/trailer switches. I dont recall how the switches are held in the existing panel, I will have to check on that and go from there.

I jsut got a switch and panel combo from Eddie Marine that was only $100 all together (fusioncoated to match of course!).
Here is the link (no picture here, if you have their catalog you can look it up).

Good Luck!
Oh, I should say I am in the midst of installing, so while they look awesome, I have not actually used them yet!
