On a side note, for others that may have a similar issue:

If the gauges are too snug to fit the pod, take a 2" or smaller drum sander in a drill or drillpress and enlarge the hole a bit. Sand evenly to the entire depth of the bored opening. If you make it too large you can always take up some slack with some tape on the gauge, and the set-screw will lock it in.

On some models of gauges, the bezel, or ring, may contact the pod next to it, forcing the gauge tight against the opposite wall of the pod opening. Removing a little on that side within the pod opening will let the gauge shift slightly away from the adjacent pod. Failure to due this might get the gauge cock-eyed and wedged in.

Of course, if you just purchased a pod from me and you have this issue, please contact me asap.

Regards,
Frank
