mercury centre throttle

Can anybody tell me where i can obtain a Mercury centre throttle from? Been looking for ages but not getting anywhere. Need one as my daughter is planning on driving, and could do with it being within reach! Do they have the trim tilt button on as standard? The only other types ive found are a bit TOO phallic-like and no t/t switch. Any help wud be appreciated.
