I'm sure there is some kind of epoxy that will mend the holes, but it'll look like shit. I think the only way to fix it and have it look nice will be a new dash pad.

Yep, once you put a hole in a continuous piece of vinyl, there isn't any way to make it look right after that.

Re: Dash repair

What material is the dash and what kind of vechile are we talking? I had some issues with a dash in one of my old vehicles and used enduratex vinyl to recover the whole thing. Its easy to work with and isnt to expensive. IMO the patch route is a waste of time and usually ends up looking worse than it did with a hole or a crack.
