Since we've owned our 94 Discovery (1997) the dash has been peeling up near the windshield. Is there an easy fix for this or do I need to buy a new dashpad (or whatever)? Any ideas?
thanks!

there's a repair kit that has a trim piece that you screw down the dash with. think it's something like $60

I got my kit from discount rovers for $57. It comes complete with screws etc. You will need a right angle drill to install it, (I used my dremel with right angle to make the holes thru the plastic and into the aluminium dash). I suggest you layout both pieces before you start since the ends don't Line up exactly with the ends of the dash. My dash was curled up 3/4" in the middle so I started drilling and screwing from both ends being careful to keep the middle matched. I was able to gradually put in and tighten all the screws ( they require a special socket) with my 1/4" drive ratchet
hope this helps
