Hi there!
I want to share with u what I’ve done with my dashboard.
I bought my Kia used after front end crash, so I have some issues to repair but I like to do so. 😅
I had some cracks and ugly primitive repairs on dashboard. I decided to try to repair it by myself. First it’s hard to find US dashboard with center speaker on it in Poland and second I don’t need to have a working airbags. 😅 Yes. I am weirdo. 😋 Never mind. To the point.
I started with removing dashboard from car. It takes about 40-50min. Very easy without any super professional tools. I bought sheet of black eco leather about 3m long and 1,5m wide. I used spray glue for upholstery. Everything I’ve done I done by myself but if u have someone to help it will be easier to stretch the leather in hard spots.
This is how my dashboard looks like before job:

Next step was to fix the passenger airbag crack. I used two-components glue.

And how it’s look after repair. 😎
