'95 Dash Pad Lifting/Seperating - Fixable?

Has anyone had any luck trying to fix a "Lifting" dash pad? I was told this is common with this dash style, lifting at the windshield, and edges from the heat... And i see they dont make aftermarked pad, i assume its a Air Bag issue.. I dont want to take the pad off if there's no hope in fixing it..

If there is another post relating to this, i couldn't find it.. Sorry for a repost..

any information would be greatly appreciated.

I've got the same thing happening but I have not tried to fix it.

I'm curious too. I'm thinking there isn't much that can be done besides taking it to an upholsterer and having it recovered since not only do they lift, but they shrink as well.

I fixed mine by replacing it with a decent used one. I was wanting to get the "lifted" one recovered in leather. I haven't seen anywhere or anyone recovering these. I'd be interested in having mine fixed to like new or recovered in leather if anybody does it. I tried a couple places a couple years ago and came up with dead ends.
