They still use the same swicth for the trim taps so you can get that . Check with beacon on the dash pannel , if not you way have to make one or have it made

Yup, trim tab switches still available. I know somebody that had a custom made plastic woodgrain dash by a company in Florida but I can't seem to find the link for it or remember the company name. They are a plastics place. They did a real nice job; engraved switch functions etc. If I find something out, I'll pass it on.

FYI there is a recall on those particular trim tab switches from insta trim boat leveler have a recall sorta, They will sell you a new water proof set for $75 if you send them your old ones like that. Apparently the water proof ones prevent the tabs from sticking on one way ot the other causing the hydraulic solinoid to burn out. In my boat one set of switches was removed and the solinoid was burnt out. I bought the new one and moved the new one. The one on the fly bridge was the old type and I believe it was moved from the cabin helm. Moved it back to the dry place and installed the waterproof one topside. In any case check their website. :D

Also I have a website of a company that builds any kind of panel you want and give you the software to design it, all on line. It is on another computer and will provide later today.
