Gauge pod to cover up dash crack?

[konstan]

My 95 k2500 has a crack in the dash, to the left of center. I am considering putting a 2 or 3 slot gauge pod like this

Which should cover the crack up nicely.

Before i start ordering gauges - has anyone done something similar and is willing to post pictures?

Well, I like that too, and it's always good to have options. Is this a vehicle-specific product?

no. went to wal-mart, got the role of replacement carpet, cut to size, glued it on, tucked it into the corners, trimmed edges. made a piece of double fold over to stuff between the windshield and dash to cover gap. they had gray, black and tan last i looked. i cut out the speaker on the left side, only because i had to get at it, but would of left it closed like the right side.

I got a complete dash at a pick and pull wrecking yard for $17 with no cracks.

When I re-installed it in my truck I took my time and had no issues. I used some rubber gasket across the inside frame to keep the dash from beating itself on it. It seems to be working good so far.

I did a write up on it. Here is a link:

Need to redo all the pictures on it.
