<e-30> dash replacement?

[vincent.a.leo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I have a e-30 325 (1987) with a couple of cracks in the top of the dash.  I
have seen two methods to correct this problem.  The first is the plastic
overlay.  I installed one on a Triumph years ago and it looked fine.  Has
anyone installed one on an e-30?  What are your thoughts?  How far down
does it cover?

Second question, I have seen a few people selling used dashes.  How much
work is involved to remove and replace the dash.  Is it a matter of ripping
the whole thing apart including the instrument cluster, hvac, etc.

Is there a third alternative I had not thought of?

Thank for your help!
