Where to find good, cheap single-gauge boot?

[Mark IV]

Reviews, prices, quality,shipping,etc are all over the map, (yet still not lot of usable options out there that I could find), so I figured it couldn't hurt to run it by the matrix. Any points in the right direction are much appreciated.
BTW, I'm needing it for the common italian-made brass/glass gauge with a 2in total case diameter.

Get a gem-cap from a hardware store. I use one to protect the glass in transit, but take it off when in use. Throw the C-clamp in the thing-bucket................ Cut a hole or slot for the hose. (you can put the cap on the bottom of the gauge while in use, then use it to protect the glass while not in use.)
Should cost 2 or 3 dollars.

Sorry, this is scubaboard, we're not done in half a page worth of posts.

I realize the question was answered, but I'd like to ask why putting the gauge in a boot? if there's only one gauge is it wrong to just have it free?

No way is this thread done.

We haven’t bickered yet.

Like in the show “Little Einsteins” where they clap in unison to power their rocket, we have to bicker to power SB....check the Terms of Service.

And besides, I’ve been holding everything in this week and it’s about time for a meltdown. A thread about a boot for an SPG seems like a good place to have one.

Let’s do this.

Rather agree with Ana.

I just tape the edges of mine to keep it from getting unnecessarily scratched and I’m nerdy careful about the glass. Haven’t had any problems.

Watch out for shipping cost.
