Ultrasonic Sensor Question (FRC+VEX parts)

My team is looking to upgrade our sensors to assist manual shooting before our offseason event, we used to have two Ultrasonics taped on (the whole electrical was real janky), both of which have been completely rekt and couldn't successfully help due to a lack of programming time. So I'm looking for Ultrasonic sensors we can use, mainly I'm asking if it's possible to use VEX rangefinders, since we already have a decent amount as is. I heard that they can give bad readings and can be fried with too much vibration. Is this true? And how difficult is it to wire up and program (compared to other ultrasonics)?
