Repaired my dash board with some nice cloth. I used some semi-stretchy cloth. The color matches the carpeting. Pulled tight and hot glued in place. Vents were the only part that were tricky as they were pretty deteriorated. I used some foam to replace the corners by the door that were broken off. Took one night, $10 of cloth and a dollars worth of glue sticks. A few wrinkles but a fix I can live with.

It sure looks better than just throwing a cover mat up there. That's using your Head. I wish the prices on Dashes would come down, but they're not likely to.

 

Thanks. I just want to get it nice enough that it isn't an embarassment. I'm going to use the wife's steam cleaner thingy on the interior, esp. two stains. I have a broken bolster on one seat that I need to find a cheap fix for next. This car was in great shape for what I paid for it. I just got it Thursday.
