Need ideas how to re-attach dash bezel trim
 
I removed the center dash bezel for wiring repair and of course old and brittle and broke some clips and pretty much everything that secures to the dash.

I was thinking carefully pre drilling a couple holes and rigging some type anchor or just slam some screws into the dash that way?

any ideas would be appreciated. I want this thing locked it… for off road.

Screws would work but you need to reinforce the plastic, adding some kind of screw retainer would help a lot

gotcha like metal deal hold the pressure on bezel? I think I just fire two screw horizontally ehere the vent deals clip in , that will the screws and I may not even need any on bottom figure something out. Mainly need to lock this top section in. What type a screw you into dash. Almost thinking like drywall screw 😂.

Or could epoxy like metal clip with threaded nut deal on it for the dash side and use machine screw w flat head n washer doesn’t crack the bezel. What do you think?

****ing hell lol

Repair any non-surface cracks with aluminum window screen and a soldering iron. After repairing it with the soldering iron pass a flame over it and then put some superglue in the crack and sprinkle it with baking soda.
