[DML] Is it wise to use a dashboard mat?

["sweetp01569" <paul.sweet@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My dash is in relatively good shape.  There are no heat-related 
cracks, but know that vinyl is brittle (I dropped a wrench on the 
surface of my glove box last year and a quarter sized 
section "shattered" on impact.  I suspect any part of the dash could 
crack under further sun exposure.  Is it wise to cover it with a dash 
mat, or is a sunshade for the windshield good enough.  If a dash mat 
is recommended, what brand do people rely on?

Thanks,

Paul
