I have a 80 240D with a crack free dash. I have had it for the past yr, and had a dash matt on when we got it. I assume it was on there for the past 30 yrs. There is not a hint of a crack.

I know we have several camps here on this issue. some would rather look at a cracked dash than use a Matt. some like the dash cap.

I saw the one RCOUNTS has on his CD, and didn`t know it had one. looking on closer inspection, it is noticable. If not looking for it, you wouldn`t know it was on there.

I think there are different company`s that make these, and the quality might vary.

I have a Matt on our 85 300D for the past 14 yrs, and really don`t notice it much. better than looking at the road map cracked dash.

I have had a Matt on my 82 Datsun PU for the past 29 yrs, and it is also crack free.
