I have used the "Coverlay" dash cover. Looks better than cracks but as soon as I found a good dash I changed it out. They look pretty good and most folks dont know the diff. ....Only you will know

Swaping dashs is not too heard but it does take a little time and I needed a helping hand (wife) getting it back in. If you do the Coverlay it comes with instructions and stickem.
