Tom,
I have the Bennet tabs. The auto control unit, by Bennet, cost ~ $350, I did the install myself. I think it was a simple install. I know you will enjoy the feature. I have the refridgerator unit and that added some weight to the port side, along with the water and two batteries in the port lazerett, then add PJ--- well. I was sitting kinda high at the helm. Add the tabs and the boat trimmed out rather nicely.

Well I just got mine on and only have 1 trip with them so far but I installed my switches upside down and backwards.
My controlls are below my throttle under the helm seat.
It is intuitive in that if I want the port bow down I press the left down rocker. If I want the starboard bow dowm I press teh right down rocker.
It feels intuitive and I like it.
I thought I had it oposite when I did the driveway test but on the water it worked just like I wanted it to. Good thing I didn;t change it in the driveway.
