wrap some black tape around the base of the gauge a few times till it fits snug....or buy some 2 1/6 gauges

One of the AM gauges I got had a rubber band around the gauge body (I think it was so if the gauge doesnt seat all the way into the pod, you wont see a light colored body hanging out). That should take up the slack.

I'd note that the last 2 1/16"AM pillar pod I got seemed to be set for 2" gauges. I had to dremel the edges for 2 1/16" gauges (of another brand) to fit.

You can make it work one way or another.

Good luck.

AM 2" and 2 1/16" are the same, the gauge face is 2 1/6" while the body is 2".
