    The poll said cracked, not demolished.

    Shores up my point:
    One man's crack is another man's eye candy. (Don't look at me; I said I wasn't a fan of cracks.)

    The above indecent exposure is exactly my idea of a crack... and I'm probably not alone with my opinion.

    I keep hearing the definitive repro is on its way. Soon...

    Meantime, I still find un-cracked originals when I need 'em, though they've gotten pricey. I'm just not good with looking at a dash crack when I'm in the 'office.'

    I’m ok with crack I have, but I must admit I stare at it and it bums me out a little bit! Posted pic below. Looks smaller in this pic than in real life, but not a disaster...yet!

    I’m just waiting for the windshield to break so I have a reason to pull it and replace the dash while I’m in there. Been waiting 22 years, a few more wont hurt.

    If it's a small crack by the speaker grill to the air vent, that crack is ok; but when its by the clock or near the lighter on what I would call the face of the dash, with a big gash, then it's and eye sore and to me very bothersome; then the repo is the way to go.
