Cracks in Radio Console

Post by Gars68 »

This interior is kicking my butt! While trying to push the radio console back in over the newly installed carpet, the darn thing cracked in a few spots. Any suggestions for fixing these? I probably should disassemble the entire thing and repaint the face plate but even removing the choke knob screw, for example, has proven to be a chore. :roll: :roll:

IIRC, The driver side pad is removable. Should be plenty of replacements out there. Matching the grain with a repair can be daunting :(
If its a crack, and not a compression dent, you could try injecting some epoxy in the crack, smooth till flush and touch it up with paint.
