    Parts list to swap from Evinrude to Mercury?

    I'm tossing the idea around of installing a 2 stroke Pro XS on my boat. Currently running a Rude so I know I'll need new controls, cables, wire harness and ??? I want to keep it simple so I think I can keep the gauges and would like to keep the control pad for starting as well. Anyone happen to know what else I may need and/or part numbers?

    thanks!

    Controls, cables, keyswitch and harness, instruments (recommend Smartcraft), steering cylinder, fuel line and bulb, appropriate battery, oil tank kit, appropriate propeller/hub, rigging tube kit, engine mounting bolt kit (most common items).

    I'm back. Stupid question but I'll ask anyway, the concealed side mount control assembly, does it come with the 14 pin main wiring harness or is that a separate purchase?

    Wiring harness is NOT included in a Panel Mount control.
