Has anyone installed a dash cover as either a permanent or temporary fix for a cracked dashboard? If so how successful is it? Worthy of approval?

Is this the sort of thing that you're thinking about? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143535761734 ... 2749.l2649

I bought one about a month ago and is a great fit and looks fantastic imo. Will get a photo for you soon.

It comes with 4 small bits of velcro that you can stick to the dash itself to more securely attach the dash mat but I didn't want to risk there being any glue residue and it's really well moulded you don't even need them.

I think so? It’s to try and cover up some cracks on the top. This looks pretty good?

Yeah I'm really happy with it. Here are the pictures as promised:

The only place where it doesn't sit completely flush is over the instrument cluster but you can't see it behind the steering wheel anyway so doesn't bother me.

Hope this helped :)
