cracking dash

Any other older 850's out there seeing cracks in the dashboards? I thought my 1994 855 might escape this typical "old Volvo" phenomenon, but today I spotted a crack and on closer inspection, saw 2 other very slight breaks in the dash material which look like they are destined to turn into cracks.

I must admit that I have almost never stored my wagon inside since buying it in '94, so it has seen plenty of sun (northern New England, not So. Cal!). I armor-all'ed it once or twice during the past 8 years and wonder if that stuff is beneficial or detrimental over the long haul.

Has anyone replaced their dash?
