Dave,

I had been looking for the same O-rings, and found this guy back in 2007.  I
never bought any, and I'm not sure if he is still around.  I've pasted his
message in below.  NFI, etc.

[2007/Apr/18] [Vendor supplied] I can supply most of the O-rings used in
Smith & Jaeger gauges, including the inner ones as well as the square
sectioned ones such as used on the Austin Healey. There are three different
types to suit differing needs, concours etc. The common 'body' (hole in the
dash!) sizes of Smiths/Jaeger gauges are 52mm, 80 mm, 100 mm & 120 mm as
found in most British cars. Prices vary from US$2 (52 mm) to US$7 (120 mm)
Email me for details.

Hello all,

  I tore apart my gauges over the weekend to clean them up only to find that
the rubber gaskets holding the glass in sunggly under the chrome bezel are
all
destroyed.

  What have people used to replace these?  Are there large o-rings somewhere
for some application that fit the gauges?  Or have you been making your own
out of some thing rubber material?

Thanks,
  Dave
