Hi James,
When Carl fitted his Dynon heated probe, he kindly gave me his original AOA 
probe,
which I think he fabricated himself by slipping a slightly wider aluminium
pipe over the original probe, and chamfering the front end to match the angle
required for an AOA probe. I fitted this to the inspection panel on the 
starboard
wing, after replacing the acrylic cover with a metal cover, and used this
for my Dyson Skyview AOA gauge, and it works well. Fortunately, I had some 
unnecessary
wiring running through the wing which I used to feed through the necessary
tubing. I have attached a couple of photos.

However, I also fitted a SmartAss device after reading the article in the June
2014 LAA Magazine by David Joyce, and I must say I find the audio prompting from
this great, and would thoroughly recommend it, to augment the AOA function.

Hope this helps.
