Hey Ike, 

  The second owner of my 500SEC had installed a Coverlay dash cover at some point (the car was originally from Orlando) but the Coverlay is cracked too. Personally, I would have replaced the dash, and that is what I plan on doing eventually. The "to do" list on my car is becoming a restoration project. Oh well, it'll be worth it when it's finished, I suppose.

                         Later,
                         Chris
