Default 2015 3lt Dash Problem

I have been away for awhile Any new fixes for the C7 3LT dash lifting? I know about injecting the space with glue from a syringe. Is there anything new going on? Anyone doing this for a fee? I don't trust myself with this job. Thanks, Mike

Other than removing the dash or removing the windshield I have read about a few people having some luck with injecting glue under the leather having some success with minor bubbling

^ That method has been discussed here a few times. Others have just switched to a 2LT dash as it does not seem to have the delamination problem.

Nope.

Syringe and clue is the "quick fix" (which I myself have done).

The only other option is removal of the dash and the leather being totally removed, stretched, and re-glued with staples where it wraps around the edges.

I did the glue and syringe thing too. I also screwed it up at one point. It can be done so that you cannot really see any evidence of the repair, but it does take patience and a steady hand.
