How can we get Tealium to push custom var in GUA _setCustomVar?

[hai_ly]

I would like to set up Tealium to push some custom var to Google Universal Analytics. What is the best practice for this? Would it be through extensions? ex. _gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, 'login-info', 'userName',1]); Thanks, Hai
