If you search the forum you will find something, ppl have put Defi gauges in particular in there. Basically, you remove the center console fall, the "gauges" are mounted on a circuit board, they are all attached to each other, so you would strip it down until you just had the hood and the bottom scoop out, then you would have to fit the new gauges in the openings using self made mounts of some kind. I think quite a few have used hot glue to fix it in there. I have one completely taken apart here, I think some creative plastic work will fit those gauges in there.

Ok, I just took the black plastic part that fits behind the silver rings. That part fills the circle opening - it is the full diameter. It measures 60MM. What I have seen people do is remove the silver ring, and fit the 60mm gauge in the opening. To make it fit 52 mm you would have to make a bezel or something that covered that gap. I fit a 2 1/16 gauge into the hood just for a look and the silver bezel on the gauge was inside the silver bezel of the hood. So I think it would be hard to make it look right. 60MM will work however.
