What size gauge fits in the round A/C vents on the firebirds dash?

I was wondering what size the gauges are that fit perfectly in the three round A/C vents in the middle of the firebirds dash?I kind of want to angle them towards the drivers seat with minimal open area left in the vents? There are a few guys out there that have done this and i think it looks really good. If some of you guys can chime in, that would be great.

2.625 or 2 5/8" gauges are the ones that fit perfectly.

As noted above, the 2-5/8" gauges fit like a glove. In fact they are so tight, that you don't need to fasten them in any way. But that also means you aren't going to be able to angle them toward the driver. From my experience, that isn't even necessary. They are easy to view from the drivers seat, mounted flat in the holes.
