Crack in Dash

[bucket]

I refurbed a dash once, it turned out pretty decent. I just vee'd out the cracks with a grinder, filled them with polyester body filler, sanded smooth, then sanded the whole pad with a DA and coated it with that cheap spray-on bedliner in a can. That stuff sucks as bedliner, but works great for this... it looked like a nice black dash pad. It could probably be painted any color after that.

I put a dash cap from lmc in my truck. The key is prep of the old dash. It needs to be super clean, and you might need to trim the new one a bit. Also get some extra adhesive.

Some pics of this process would be cool if you have them. We like doing how-to write ups with pics if you ever find something to add.

Even some before and after if that's all you have.

I don't think I ever took a pic, and it was in the K5 I sold a while ago. I planned on doing another one soon though, I should be able to do a write-up on it.

I went the replacement Dash route. Got mine from Brothers. Took me a whole day to do the job but I cleaned stuff up, tied off loose wires and replaced all my bulbs at the same time.
