We are working on a plug-in solution for this and hope to release it soon.) Please come up with a solution, even if it is to go to Mercury service agent to convert or manufacture a plug and play harness. This is so important to our boating community as most of us have Mercury Marine side mount control. I am willing even to purchase new control system to make this vitally important product work with the describer setup.
