Dash is cracking

Is there any way to repair a crack in the dash (talking about my '86)? It is cracking on the center area with the small holes for a dash speaker. Any help is appreciated.

I dont know of any way of repairing them. I have a 90 grand marquis and i ordered a custom fit dash cover for mine.It has a carpet look but looks real good and it protects the dash fron the sun.
Sorry i couldn't help, but this is how i will keep mine from cracking.

You can try a vinyl repair kit. I just used on in my Civic to repair a gash I made with a saw.

My 77 F-250 dash has a crack in it also but I have never bothered to fix it. I just painted it with textured paint.
