5 in tach & speedo installation

I searched the forums for the answer to this question and came up with nothing. Lots of guys are using 5in. tachs and speedos. What I need to know is, what is the best way to mount this size of a tack and speedo in the stock dash of my 1972 240z?

go to home depot and buy a roll of black rubber garage door bottom seal for $7.49. it has a nice edge that will wrap well around the 5" gauges. cut a section long enough to wrap around your gauge and test fit the gauges. the wrap alone will provide an interference fit into the holes in your dash. to make it more secure, however, use some black glue/caulk/sealant between the seal and the gauge, as well as where the seal makes contact with the dash.
