They're ridiculously expensive, but really your only good solution. There is no way to properly fix a cracked one. Once they start cracking, they never stop. You can glue a cap on top of your old dash for $150, but the finish is wrong, they don't fit well, and the speaker grilles are not even remotely close to the factory ones.

Not your only option, if you meant dash pad & not dash board.

Re: Cracked dash board
A1 Auto also have something that could help if its the pad your talking about and don't really want to spend around $500
https://www.1aauto.com/1984-92-chevy...=229675&y=1986
If its the pad its a common problem, the only other thing you could do is to search the used parts for sale ads here/Craigslist/local ads and or try out your area autobreakers.
If you dropped in a picture of the part you need that would help.

Hi, I've got a nice clean and undamaged used one of those covers I got off of a wrecked car but didn't end up using. I'll sell it to you WAY cheaper than that if you think you want to go that way.

I know it's nice to have a really nice dash, but I bought one of these: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...035593&jsn=315 It looks great until I can talk myself into spending almost $600 for a new dash.

Henryd3, Do you still have that dash pad? How much do you want for it?

Re: Cracked dash board
It's not the dash pad, just one of the overlay covers for a Camaro and I'm in California so safely packing and shipping won't be cheap. I do have a very clean Firebird dash pad though with speaker covers and vents if anyone needs it

Re: Cracked dash board
When (not if) my dash pad cracks I will probably fill it to stabilize the crack, sand it smooth, and upholster it with leather.
