For those using pvc for gauges

How are you keeping the gauges secured in the pvc holders? I though gauges need some form of mounting at the back, but I have seen a few builds that it looks like there is no mounting or securing of the gauge. Just have to ask.

if there is some gap between gauge and holder, one round of insulating tape will keep it in place.

Exactly what they said. If it's a little loose just add some electrical tape.

K. Thanks. Was curious and it seems like pvc will be great for mounting gauges exactly how you want it.
