my camaro dash just cracked, its about 2 inches long dont know how it happened but it did. wanted to know what can i do to fix it? i was thinking super glue to glue the crack closed is this a good idea? what do you all recommend?

The SEARCH feature, here on TGO, can do wonders for you.

Here is JUST ONE such result.... http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/in...-pad-less.html (Fix for Dash Pad, for less then $15)

It is a VERY common problem with 3rd gens.

Honestly you're best bet is either pay the money for a new reproduction or to watch here and ebay etc. for a non cracked original.

IMO none of the fixes look good.

i would be very careful on what you put on your dash. the dash in my firebird was starting to crack and i was told to clean it with water and there is a product to fill the crack with.. and in the long run it just made it crack more. my advice is to buy a new dash pad. there easy to replace.

Oh and never never never use Amor All on your dash pad! If you do it will just be a matter of time till it does crack and how much, not if it will.

oh no mines not bad at all like those one, you cant see the crack until you get really close to it. i think i can just clue it togther.

its on the curved part by the vent that hits the side glass, i think someone hit it getting in or out of the car. its not bad enought to repalce or sand down and repaint.

You won't be able to glue the crack nor will it really look good. This has been an ongoing problem since the very first thirdgen dash cracked. Just prepare to find a new one - if you want that perfect look. I have three dashes and the one with the crack that you describe gets rotated in during the winter and the "perfect" dash comes out and gets stored in the house during the winter. Usually when your knee hits that curved piece in the winter it cracks. I hit my knee on it when I get in the drivers side following getting in behind my shorter wife who has the seat up closer to the dash.

Don't put anything on your dash but water. Chemicals is reproted to be the reason why these pads crack.

To my knowledge I have not seen a good fix for these other than replacement.

Welcome to the crowd; this is unfortunately a very common problem with 3rd gens. All 3 of mine have been cracked when I got to them so I know your pain.
