Your insurance company can't tell you what you can and can't put in
your airplane.
It needs to be legal and even that's a grey area.

I called up Avemco a while back and asked them about being insured if
your out of annual and they said that I was.

I have never heard of an insurance not covering an aircraft in an
accident because of a radio or wigget that was out of spec or date.

If that was the case, most aircraft would not be covered at all.

Since an AI isn't typically required for the right seat position in
light aircraft, why would the insurance company care? The OP asked about
using a 2nd AI as a backup. Do you think the insurance company would
rather not have a backup in place, or allow one that was non-TSO ?

Cite to chapter and verse of the FAR, please?

I'd like to learn if I am incorrect. Can you show me where it says
it
is acceptable to use a non-TSO'd part in a certified
(non-experimental) aircraft without changing its classification?

The FAR's may not say anything but your insurance policy might have
something to say about it if you're in an accident and file a claim.
