LOL

I think once I add some of the padded dash filler and rewrap it in vinyl, it should add some strength and hopefully turn out ok. If it doesn't I'll be shelling out the $500ish for a replacement <fingers crossed>

FYI, Gorilla Glue works really well on foam and things like that if you need to do more reconstruction on the dash.

Fixed... Gorialla Tape is equally as awesome as the glue if not more.

Gorilla tape and zip-ties are the two most used items in my garage.

Haven't seen any used dashes around for ya, Chris. I can try to contact some Datsun guys out in Arizona if you want. They may have one/know someone with a dash pad if the reconstruction doesn't work.
