Help! I have a small puncture in my dash (just to the right of the nav screen). It is small, but really bugs me. Any suggestions on repair? Took to the body shop and they said there wasn't anything they could do. :(

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

What year and model car do you own? The paintless dent removal shops often perform dash repairs. Check a shop near you to see if they can repair the puncture or refer you to another that can handle the repair.

I have a 2003 ML350 Brilliant Silver Inspiration Edition. The dash is a dark charcoal grey.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried a few shops around Indy with no luck. Any referrals would be greatly appreciated!

JC Whitney Sells a dash board repair kit for $39 (Item Number ZX125493Y). You will have to mix the color yourself to get it to match so if you don't have a good eye for that sort of thing, take it to a professional. I used the kit on my 84 Chevy truck (an expirement before I tried it on my 300D) and it turned out great. But like i said matching the color can be a bit tricky.

Your MB dealer will work with a vinyl repair specialist who will fix leather and vinyl repairs to your satisfaction for a reasonable price.The one in Dallas is the Vinyl Doctor.My service advisor said he can fix almost any tears or holes for under $100.
That way you can know what you are getting.
