Front Dash Crack

Good to know and thanks.

Depending how accessible the cracks are, I’d do a drill point at the end of each one then hot staple the crack itself just so it doesn’t get worse then get a dash carpet. I put one in my suburban and it fit super nice

I don't know why I didn't post this earlier, but I got this to try to keep the pieces together and from falling apart and down into the dash structure. It's quite strong and uses very little. Hoping to apply it this weekend as my dash is in pieces haha.

Have you tried a little test spot of glue? Usually the instant adhesive stuff dries very brittle and can/will come apart when you hit bumps or the dash rattles for whatever reason

I haven't yet, today was crappy out. I'm going to put a dab on a section tomorrow morning. I'll let yah know how it goes.
It's pretty rugged stuff, used it on my daughters' boyfriend's dirt bike plastics and it's held up surprisingly well. It's pretty impressive stuff, it's different than a super glue. At least how it reacts once it has contact with plastic.

Inspection time came around and the backlights on my cluster had blown since the last inspection. My dash was already cracked to all hell. Took the cluster out and shipped it off to ACS for a rebuild and upgrade.

Finally decided it was time to hunker down and get the dash replaced.




Dash and Dash extender picked up from the Chevy dealership… waiting on the cluster to come back and the interior rebuild begins.

2024 price was 1k for both dash parts.
