Plastic Dash Panel Cracks
Does anybody else have these cracks in the plastic
under the dash pad? I would like to replace these
pieces. Dr. Vinyl wants $40.00 to fix all the crack
with some machine he has if I pull the pieces out.
Anyone have any for sale??
THANKS!

I have the same stupid cracks. I'm not that worried about it though. I think the junkyard is where I'll go to get new pieces.
My problem is this thing sits for long periods of time, outside.
Here in TX., the weather changes every 10 mins. so...

My car is originally from California. That
could explain the cracks if the car sat outside
everyday in the sun and the interior heated
up and then the panels cracked. Thats
my only idea. I been looking for someone
to sell me new ones but nobody seems
to have them and I also heard its a PITA
to get these things out....
Thanks!

If you pay a professional, you'll not have many cents left. He'll be making all the cents (and dollars).
and right the first time. Thats just the way I am. If I am
going to do something its going to be right. Why mess with it
and then have to tear everything back apart cause you screwed
it up or took a chance???
Its just common CENTS
