I have plans to buy a new dash for mine since I have a sticky dash. It is from the intense heat in florida. I found one on line for just about 1k ,but the dealer wants 8hrs labor to do the job.
I haven't really searched too much ,but the shop that fixed my seat wasn't interested in doing the job.

Hi viceroy666,

I know it has been a while since you posted your message. I managed to get the dealer here to replace the entire dash, I had to pay the labor charges which I wasn't too happy with but they did pay for the part. Considering my car is out of warranty, it's not too bad I suppose.

The dash is still ok at the moment but I expect it to crack again in the future unless Nissan has changed the material used to make the part which I doubt.

How much does the labor charge cost bro? Planning to bring it to bostead & ask for the replacement as well. & who did u talk to?

Hi abgyak,

I spoke to Kevin Lee. If I remember correctly, he's the manager of the service department. Labor cost was $350.

Good luck.

How old was your 370 Z when the dealer replaced the dash? The dash in my 2010 is now cracking is exactly the same way.

After 10 yrs of ownership, my dash is starting to crack at the same spots mentioned in these photos...other z owners are having the same issues. The z spent most of its time in the garage.

My 2009 370 Z Nismo also had cracks on the dash where you showed yours near the door. After the Tokata airbag recall, I had a huge crack all the way across my passenger side. The dealer refused to even discuss it, and when I called corporate Nissan to lodge a complaint, they blew me off as well. My 1988 Stanza was outside for 11 years and 121,000 miles, and the dash never cracked. My 370 Z has always been garaged and has 41,000 miles on it. And the dash looks like crap. Nissan is not the company it used to be. I am very disappointed.

In that case, I would learn how to make carbon fiber parts and just lay it down on the pieces that are already cracking. I did my doors and the center dashboard for this very reason. Mine is a 17. Still looks brand new.
