Cracked Gauges?

Ok, so I have 4 gauges on the console on my 08 Cougar FTD, three are Mercury (SmartCraft) and the other is for my Detweiler jack plate, all three of the Mercury gauges have cracked, and the only option I can find is to spend almost a grand to replace the entire gauges????? This is unacceptable, surely there is some other option in getting the lenses replaced? Please help!James Roberts
