I went to the local scrap yard monday and they still had the 93' z28 in the back and told me i could have free reign over the interior and i ended up getting a perfect condition dash cap for free. WIN! Since they were moving the scrapyard( im not sure how you would move a scrapyard) but everything was free so i proceeded to gut the **** out of the interior....sun visors, arm rest, fuses, *****, dash, speaker covers......next visit will be the rear buckets and maybe a fender

Do you have a source or link?

Does the 98+ have this problem? I would die if my dash cracked.

yeah there pretty hard to get out. They become very brittle over time
