I purchased my 325isw/o any cracks in the dash. I was very suprised to see that at it's mileage (150k miles) it still didnt' have any cracks. At this point, considering that it didn't have any sunbleaching, I also purchased a dash cover (in black), and purchased some really good grade protectant, it was Meguar's (sp?) it's much thicker than armorall, which indicates it's lower water level(armorall is mostly water, that's what causes it to fail once you don't use it regularly enough) but with Meg's, I use it ever 2 months, and then put the dash cover back on immediately. ( I know, I'm_anal about maintenance and cleanliness)

happy brickin!
