Default autometer boost gauge

i installed my autometer boost gauge and im running 5-7 psi and 18-20 vaccum at idle, 2000 s70 glt 100 000
one more question, is their something that holds the tubing into the back of the the boost gauge because it pops right out, maybe i lost something, or did autometer not provide it?

There is 2 types.
1. There is a little insert that goes into the middle of the hose.
2.There is a ring that would fit over the hose then when you install it in the guage and tighten it it compresses onto the hose(compresson fitting)
