For what it's worth, there's a fellow on eBay selling these rings for
Triumph gauges , described as "not the plain 'ol round O-rings you can find
at all the usual suppliers, these are the correct square cross section rings
that go between the gauge and the dashboard".
You can see a set at:

NFI, and I haven't had a set in hand to evaluate yet
