My dash is all cracked to hell. Does anyone make a cap to fit it or am I stuck with having to do a swap?

 

throw vinyl over it

 

Just find another dash and swap it :\ it's not hard.

 

The difficulty is meager by itself, but is massive in comparison to my available time.

 

Kyle Mohans rx8 has the dash re wrapped in leather and it looks good

 

Nobody makes a cap for it that I know of. You would be on your own in making something like that out of vinyl or leather. I briefly tinkered with the idea and quickly dismissed it as I would either spend too much time or money, do a horrible job or even do too good of a job and the rest of the interior looks like crap. I remember seeing someone a long time ago recover it with vinyl and it looked pretty good, but unfortunately, I don't have pictures or a link.

I sourced a replacement dashboard.

 

A replacement is the best bet...the time to swap them is a big issue for me right now...plus the fact that no one around here has any parts cars.

 

It's a tedious job, that's for sure. Taking all the accessories off is the major pain, as once that's all gone I think there's maybe only 11 bolts that hold the actual dash in. If it's not your daily driver, I'd just plan on breaking it into a weekend or two project, that way you don't have to spend almost a whole day doing it.

EDIT: I just read another thread you posted in and it's your daily. Yeah, you may just have to find a day to do it once you have a replacement.

 

I pulled my dash to do a full swap to black interior. It sucks. Nothing hard about it, its just a **** *** job. Worth the effort in the end though.

 

Weekends? What are those?
