Other than a new dash or recovering your old one, that's about your only choice. I have a coverlay on mine that's all cracked and needs replacing. I don't know what my dash looks like under it. It's glued on and I don't want to pull it off until I get a replacement.

I used a coverlay on mine and i think it looks great.....I've even forgot about it until I read this....It matches perfect.. even the grain....I used silcone to glue it down and it hasn't cracked or lifted anywhere yet..

I just want to get a feel for how long these things last.

I have had a Coverlay for 5 years, adhered w/ clear silicone.
I has not lifted or cracked at all in that time. The car is located in Florida, is not garaged and I do not use a sun shade.

Does anyone know where to get a dashcover for an early 944 in RHD?
You can all stop laughing now.
The 924/944 is the only car less than 40 yrs old I have ever seen to suffer from a cracked dash in England!
