Yep, those darn moderators must be out to lunch again.

Every piece of wood on my 1985 300SD is showing signs of cracking.

I have noticed the wood seems to crack sooner on most gasoline MB models.

There is a fellow in Florida, I believe, who will refinish these pieces at a reasonable cost.

I think I may have the link somewhere if you're interested..........

Yes

The cheapest local I have found is $500.00 for the three piece dash, and $200.00 for the shifter panel.

Wood is meant to be refinished, not replaced. Find a competent woodworker in your town and have them work on some extra pieces from a junkyard find. Shouldn't cost too much, I hope. I've got to have my center console piece done at some point in the near future.

There's a local wrecker who is asking $500+ for a very good (used) center console insert

I got a few nice replacement trim pieces from this place at nowhere near the prices you guys are talking about. I visited them once while on a business trip and saw a couple of shelves with various trim parts already pulled. They have pretty much everything from the 126 models on back.
