Broken Dash Mounting Tabs

My dash started making all kinds of terrible noises recently (it sounded like the windshield was falling out). Upon closer inspection, it turns out all of the dash mounting points at the windshield are cracked.

I'm sure some of you have dealt with this, so what's the best fix?
– Take it all apart and epoxy them back together?
– Reinforce the tab area somehow?
– Cage the truck and build a custom dash off the cage?!

Desolate Motorsports makes a support bracket. Check out their website.

Yeah, I've checked that out but it looks like it only replaces the lower passenger side bracket. Mine is okay there. My problem is the upper screw holes/tabs along the windshield.

I’d personally go looking for another dash.

Looks like you need a new dash. If it’s that far gone.
