Need Ideas to mount 2 5/8 Gauges

Im just looking for a good place and way to mount my gauges... they are the somewhat larger 2 5/8 gauges and Ive yet to see an Apillar pod for them... that and im not sure on how/where to route the Mechanical Lines. Looking for an inview out of the way mounting spot where it wont require me to dissasemble the entire dash to install them.

for reference they are Autometer SportComp Oil Pressure and Oil Temprature Gauges

any Ideas? I thought there was some one selling plates for this that go into the StereoSurround?

Might want to rethink about using mechanical gauges, some people worry they might leak inside the car.

Ill try some more searches but FYI, that link showed NO RESULTS... Thanks anyway though...
I didnt figure it was a comon topic

the panles only fit 2 1/16 Gauges... mines too big...
I thought about going electical, but I like reliability and acuracy. Besides im going to use Copper hose rather than Nylon

thanks for the info though
