You could get a dash mat which would be the cheap way to do it.....
Or just get a dash from a junkyard

Take it to an upholstry shop that specializes in leather/vinyl. See what they can do.

Other than that, your best bet is to get a new dash.

First, I would go to a upholstery shop.

If that doesn't work try a junkyard, and last resort would be to fiberglass the whole dash.

Dude, it wasnt me. i swear... no, it was the previous owner who had a tach. it ended up getting stolen, so then i bought the car and put an ex cluster in. but, yea, the fact remains, i might have to put the puppies on my dash to cover it.
