I've got a Ray A75 on my pedestal guard, one thing that hasn't been
commented - put a grommet in the hole in the guard tube, to protect the
wiring.

Hi Edd , I did a similar thing as Josh with an existing Navpod and a
Garmin unit. I don't have photos at the moment but would be happy to
chat about how we did it.

Josh,
Photos would be great, including how you got cabling from the guard to
an accessible point in the ceiling of the aft cabin (and to the port
locker).
All the best,
Edd

Edd,
I replaced the pedestal guard and installed a navpod for my new B&G 9"
plotter last year. Navpod makes an oversized guard which made getting
all the wires in very easy. I actually ran considerably more wires
than I needed since the system has the ability to interface
wirelessly. The nice thing about using the navpod is that the holes
in the guard can be cut with a die-grinder and be pretty raggedy and
ugly. I used a file to smooth the edges so as to protect the wires
but it was definitely something that I was glad to be able to hide
behind the navpod box. Turned out very professional looking and all
the wires exit through the bottom of the guard posts, through the
deck, and are accessible from the ceiling of the aft cabin. We fished
connections over from the port locker in the aft cabin. I'll see if I
can find some pictures.
Unfortunately it wasn't a cheap project.

Listers,
I’m considering adding an instrument pod and a larger pedestal
guard to the Enterprise, preferably something big enough to handle
my Raymarine e9 Series multifunction display.
Between the thick power cable and the SeaTalk network cable (and
the ends,) I think I’d drive myself nuts trying to cut holes in
the stainless steel big enough to not only get those those cables
in and out, but also feed them where I need them to go.
Has anyone thought of a way to neatly run cabling along the
outside of the pedestal guard?
I could use a new project.
All the best,
Edd
