Just so I understand. Does your kicker have a steering tube? Or is that the part that you need. I had a similar problem with a tohatsu  because it did not have a steering tube. If that is your problem, then I have a solution.

It is a steering tube that clamps onto the motor bracket. They are made by powrtran  for their tailfin steering control setup. They are for sale for $120.99 +tax and shipping.

I have one that I used on my Tohatsu for one season. I am willing to sell mine for $65+shipping

Do a search for “Mercury quicksilver auxiliary steering bracket” and you should see a number of them.  Panther T5 installation video on their website shows them using a Mercury bracket to attach steering rod.  If you bought your motor new from a dealer hey should be able to help you too.  What you need is triangle shaped bracket with a hole for ball stud then 2 holes for bolts to your motor.  Don’t use the the 2 flat plates that Panther sells as a universal mount- I’ve always made my own and never drill or modify my kicker.
