Welp, so far in my car, I've recovered my dash, all 3 kneepads, the 2 rear quarter trim panels, and the 2 A-posts with new vinyl. My recommendation for the binnacle is that you strip all the old vinyl off of it, fill the cracks with RTV, smoothing it out as you apply it. Then, recover it with new vinyl. I'm not sure where you live, but if you have a JoAnn Fabrics, go look for some "whisper vinyl" in the color of your interior. It will cost $11.99 a yard. If you have the gray interior, you may want to purchase the white whisper vinyl and then dye it with the grey dye everyone else uses on their interiors. It stretches VERY nicely (especially when heated) and has a quilted backing. I've been using Weldwood contact cement to adhere it and it's never failed me yet. The shape of the binnacle should not be a problem to stretch a single piece of vinyl over, providing you take your time and use a hairdryer. You can do it, and it will cost you about $17 total for a brand-new-looking binnacle.
