Default Measurement help 69-76

Can someone please measure for me the vent opening diameter in the dash pad (passenger or driver side, should be the same size)?



Thank you!

That is a 68 dash pad. And as far as I know they are all the same size from 68-76 and identical left and right. 68's did not have a valve behind them. They added that in 69-up. Lou.

aahh, didn't know this was a '68, I only added the picture as a reference to the measurement I need. Can someone give me the diameter of that vent? It doesn't have to be accurate, an estimate would do.
