Default Autometer Gauges

I am considering replacing my gauges with new ones from Autometer. I thought I remembered seeing a thread with pictures of a dash that had been done that way but I can't seem to find it now.
Has anyone done that?
Did you use the 2 1/16" size?
How did you attach them?

I would appreciate any help and pictures that you can provide.
Thanks,
Fred

Is this what you were thinking?
I stole this picture from the '63 Vert in the for sale section. A very nice car BTW.



Another one.

Sorry guys, I forgot to tell you I am working on a 58'. You directed me to the photos I had been looking for and I sent PMs to a couple of people asking for details.

Thanks for the prompt replies already received.

Some time ago I posted a picture of some Autometer Arctic White gauges in a C1 pod.

Also have put a new clock, wiper switch, and transmission temp gauge in the center console.

Default C2 gauge cluster with Auto meter gauges

I saw a thread with a mounting bracket made by a hot rod shop to mount Auto meter gauges in a C2 dash cluster. Thin it was in a 65 Corvette. Need the name of the company that makes it.
