Spitfire/ Anson Fuel Gauges

Can anyone tell me what the size of the hole is in the instrument panel to take the Spitfire or Anson fuel gauge, I believe they are both the same size.
Thanks.

Many thanks that’s just the job. I have a friend doing the CAD drawing for the instrument panel on the DH88 Comet which we are trying to do as close to original as we can. From the pictures we have the fuel gauges seem to be the same type as fitted to the Spitfire and Anson, although recalibrated for the larger fuel tanks. We don’t have any yet as they do seem to be very expensive so we may have to go for different types but for now its fingers crossed.

thanks again
