VDO carries 4" gauges and the 21/16 are the common size for all the smaller aftermarket gauges. I am running VDO vision series. But I can enlarge the hole for 5" gauges or shrink it down to 3 3/8". I just went off the gauges I ran in the original factory dash I modified for aftermarket gauges.

Here is the picture from the back and how the gagues are mounted. I do not clean up the machining marks on the back because it will never be seen once installed.

As far as a matching glove box, it has been suggested and right now I looking into it but it will be a while since my machine is loaded for another month or so.
