1967 Barracuda dash face plate.

You may like to know it was already cracked. Don't beat yourself up over that. The right seat back is what cracks them. Those 500 dollar Chinese bezels are being cracked in the same manner. There is or should be a part on the seat hinge bolt much like the biscuit type motor supports (rubber bonded to metal ) that once created resistance in the seat back movement. 40 years later the seat back flips effortlessly.
My custom modified OEM bezel corrected this ( deleted that "fish poop" screw ) along with other alterations/improvements . All history now.
