Default Cobra Cockpit Gauges

On gauges. My Slab-side came with S-W gauges of uniformly poor quality. Gas gauge stays full until maybe 2 or 3 gals left, then drops like a rock to E. Mileage odo stuck on 5158, but speedo works! Coolant temp. gauge used to stick hard downscale, needing a "rap" to get it to register properly (seems ok last few months, tho). BTW, condensation normal on inside gauge glass? (I am assuming units not sealed, because of temperature (light bulb inside) considerations. Yes?)

Any advice on switching to Smith's? Happy with them on MGA and BJ8 Healey Mk III, and no worries ever with Jaeger gauges on old 73 Alfa Spider Veloce. Were Smith gauges OEM on Slab-sides as a nod to AC, Ltd?
