Guage pod suggestions?

I am thinking of installing a wideband O2 sensors that uses a 2 1/4" guage. Anyone have any recommendations or pictures of their aftermarket guage installations.

I modified an old clock housing to accept the gauge. The gauge I used is 2 5/8"

How did you modify the clock housing? I do not want to cut/trim/modify or otherwise butcher my dash.

Here is a side view of the housing. I took the front cover off the clock, gutted the inside, and drilled the housing to accept the gauge. I'm selling this one if your interested.

A VDO pod works pretty good on the pillar.

Got one of these from 9xauto. They had these made in limited quanties, so they're pricey. It clamps onto the a-pillar, so no drilling required. I've never seen these anywhere else.

It works real well with an Autometer mounting cup.
