2000 Ram 2500, Holy Dash, from what i have gathered it is the factory windsheilds that cause the cracking, somehow, it lets the wrong type uv light through and it cracks them.

01 dash is cracked 5 places but so far no holes!! My last one had football sized holes.. Was a 99.
Guess we should make dodge visit this thread! It's hard to argue with facts! (but u can't fix stupid either)

02 with 135k and the cracks are taking over. entire pieces ar breaking off. looks so terrible but there some sites out there that you can get replacements ranging in price within the 100 200 range....yet still a complete waste of money considering it shouldnt be like that!!!

2001 and it hasn't cracked yet. It usually sits outside too except for the few rare times it gets to sit in the garage.

01 2 cracks slightly to the right of radio it is not noticable when its hot but in cold you can fit a quarter in it i also have decided to go with the dash cover from genos probably gonna get it when it starts getting cold i will throw some poxys on it to keep it from cracking anymore and throw that cover on it and be good to go
