Are there any tricks you guys use to keep the thermostat in place in the housing while mounting it to the intake?

I use a rubber band.  Kind of hard to explain, but loop it thru the nose piece on the stat so both ends are sticking out, insert the band thru the hole in the housing and use some kind of rod thru the loops that is longer than the housing  hose opening.

The rubber band holds the stat tight to the housing and when the housing is in place remove the rubber band by taking one end off the rod and pulling the band out.
