You could probably get one at the junkyard pretty cheap?

this has been brought up thousands of times. its the infamous dash crack. they do make a cover that will go over it but it runs about 120 for the piece. only other thing to do is either ignore it or go pull the whole lower dash from a yard since that piece is connected to the bottom dash

Not sure if you want to go through changing out the whole dash structure, then risking it happen again.

Here's a thread with the cover piece: http://www.j-body.org/forums/read.php?f=45&i=89357&t=89357.

The other option is if you do replace the dash structure, do something to reinforce it before you put it in, like some fiberglass on the underside. It would suck to go through all that work and have it crack again.

Bah, there's at least three threads about this on the first page at any given time. Simple search would've found it. But, nonetheless.. here's the place you need to go for a replacement. It's the fastest and easiest way to fix it.. although it's not the cheapest (but reasonable for many). Click me.

we're talking the whole dash, not just the top dash pad. the whole dash which will involve pulling the wheel and all.

Or you could get a Dash Cover from Autozone for $30. I've had mine for a year now and love it.

Three times in two days you took the entire dash out? So are you seriously that board? LOL.

On another note, if you've had the piece out three times, why didn't you already replace it?

Hey dipsh!t, I was one of the first people to answer you with good info.
Next time I see a thread of yours asking for help, I'll ignore it.

Thanks for playing.
