Good gauges - where to buy

Looking to replace the gauges on my MF 165. They were all either not working or kinda rusted/foggy. The tach actually worked for a couple days after I bought it and then now nothing so it is getting replaced too. I checked the cable and it is spinning at the tach end so everything should be good besides tach.

I've replaced gauges before on a different tractor but it seemed within 2 months that they were fogged up and pretty well unreadable.

Is there a good brand to go with? Is there something I can do to the gauges to make them not fog up?

Hi all, just bought a 165. Was seeking some help. This is my first loader tractor. The guy I bought it from said he thought the controls were wrong. The closest red knob has to be all the way back to operate the 3pt. This also drops the bucket. Surely I can operate the 3pt with the loader in the air. It also came with another controller which I would like because the red knows are very touchy while also being stiff, there's no easing the bucket down. Can anyone point me in a direction to add the controller and the 3pt problem? TIA
