The dashboard on my 1997 Z-28 is cracking rather badly. After a decade of Arizona summers and most recently a New Jersey winter, there are several cracks in the dashboard that I would like to repair. Any advice on best methods including taking the dashboard off (if necessary)and repairing it then reinstaliing it would be appreciated.

cracks appear when the covering gets dry and brittle. The spongy material under it also get dry. There are a couple of repair kits out there that you can use. just remember that over time there will possibly be more cracks. its your choice to repair the ones there now or buy another one. Check with year one to see what they cost.
