How to Fix Dash - Now With Pictures!

Trying to decide on how to fix my dash... my mounting tabs for the center bezel are broken, went with the stereo and bezel.

I got a temporary replacement bezel until I can find a better one.

I have a few different options to fix the dash:
1. Replace Dash - time consuming and expensive unless I am lucky and find a decent one at the U-Pull-It.
2. Make something out of steel and adhere it to whats left of the mounting tab.
3. Get this stuff and make a new tab: http://www.urethanesupply.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=2503&Category_Code=&Store_Code=URE

Need to fix the bezel in the 94, saw it was all cracked around the mounting hole. So... I dont know what to do. What do you guys think?

You need a glue that bonds to plastic. I believe a hobby shop will have what you want. To test it, it should eat away at the plastic slightly.

Are you only in need of the center bezel where the stereo/AC go?

I have local friend with a 94 v6 parts car.. I can check if he has that piece for sale and if it is in good shape.

I need one of those... I got a temporary one, all the mounting holes are broken...

But the actual dash needs some fixing as well. Where the metal clips go onto the dash... both of them are broken.
