Hi Jim
The factory piece isn't actually an O ring as it's 'cut' but is just the
right length so it stays in place. It's round spongy rubber with a little
hole in the middle and is VERY soft. I have a length of 'new' stuff that I
got from a gauge restorer in England. It looks the same but is not as soft
so I have to 'pre-flatten' it with a big weight so it's not so thick. I
could send you a piece if you can't find anything locally... You don't have
any more 4" Jaeger gauges you can 'sacrifice' ?? ;) a speedo has the same
piece...

Subject: [Tigers] Tach / Speedo parts
Hello,
I'm nearly finished the Auto Meter tach project
1. take it apart
2. hog out the I.D. to accommodate the Sunbeam inner bezel
3. cut down the tach can rim diameter a bit
4. cut in the tabs into the tach can rim
5. paint the inside section blue
Here is where I got stuck.
You know the rubber ring that goes between the glass and the lower black
inner bezel? I don't have one.
Anybody got any idea on where to get them?
Help!
