Angry VDO gauges........

Sorry, I need to vent again. I am extremely unhappy with the performance of my VDO gauges in my 83 300SD. We have owned a 1980 accord, which didn’t have ANY of these gauge problems. Just to go into a few of my problems with VDO, my cruise control required work, my fuel gauge is unreliable, as is my temp gauge. The speedometer has stopped working, the odometer(well everyone knows about those problems, what a cheap POS), and my clock only works half the time. I find it ridiculous that when contracted to make gauges for as high of a caliber car as a Mercedes is, they couldn’t use better parts to make the gauges last longer. This is absolutely ridiculous, I cringe when I see their logo on my dad’s BMW 528i…..
