Single 2 1/16" gauge pod

I have looked everywhere I can think of for a single gauge (2-1/16") pod.
I don't care if its an A-pillar or column mount as long as it will mount properly in my 2004 Supercrew. I will be adding a Roush S/C to my current list of mods on the 25th of this month and want to install a "single" boost gauge. Anyone have one or seen one???

I have a single column pod that looks oem. I'm not sure if they are available for the 04+.

Any city between North Canton and Virginia that has an O'Reilly Auto Parts store...

I've been to three in my area and they have an entire section of gauges.... ON second thought.. I know 2 out of 3 have a whole wall of gauges.. the other one I'm "mostly" sure has some too.

2" boost gauges.. either white faced or black faced.. carbon fiber faced.. mechanical or digital.

The little change holder off to the right of the steering wheel (if you have one) is a perfect spot to put one gauge. It's circular and it pops out. I had an Autometer gauge put in that spot and it fit like a glove. No modifications.

Thanks for everyones input.
I found resolve by purchasing a dual A-pillar pod and adding an oil pressure gauge in conjunction with the boost gauge. Now I have somenting to occupy my Saturday morning with. I will install both tomorrow and just leave the boost line coiled up under the hood until I install the blower in two weeks....
If anyone is looking for Autolite Revolution HT0's, I just picked up two sets from Summit Racing last week. They seen to have a healthy stock @ $9.95 each. Also installed new fuel filter and 02's, plus changed the rear end lube over to Mobil One synthetic 75-140 with a bottle of friction additive. Ready for the blower now....

What a pain in the @ss trying to stuff all the wires and the vacum line through the dash and into the engine compartment. Both my'01 Lightning and '03 Cobra had easier access to route the wires....but the end result is worth it I guess....I added an electric oil pressure gauge also, and you have to be very carefuly running the wire to the sending unit.. I had an oil leak that was driving me insane before the installation and I found it very easily while installing the new sending unit. The stock sending unit was finger tight and only had 3 threads holding it...Oil was squirting out around it and causing a slow drip when the truck has parked overnight. Not anymore--
