Default cracked hud plastic

So the plastic cover which is on top of the hud cracked. Also the plastic cover where the wind shield wipers are developed a crack as well. There were a few hot/sunny days and the car baked in the parking lot at work. I am curious if this happened to anybody and how much of a pain it was to replace those parts.

Yeah, I replaced by HUD bezel. Gotta remove the dash pad. It's a PITA but not too bad if you take your time. I found a tutorial somewhere. I uploaded it for you...

No idea where I found this. Might be this forum?
