Cracked center console! Help in Adhesives!!!

In the following pic you'll see where the crack is, now if you have a 97 center console you'll know that you can't access the back of that crack because of the design of the console. Any suggestions on what adhesives will work and do a clean job?

Any help would be great guys, thanx...

side crack of console

You probably should just get a new one from ebay or yearone.

Try mettali-clay like from the hobby lobby. sands smooth and is hella hard. Failing that, any epoxy and some sanding. If it's textured where it's cracked forget it, buy another console at a yard for 30$ like I did. Heck i bought the whole dang dash set-up for 150$!!

You can try this stuff called The Perfect Glue. It works by melting the plastic together. I used it on the cover piece that goes on the lock and door handle on the doors to repair a tiny crack, as well as one of the door hooks. Works perfectly, and even smokes when you put it on a q-tip or carpet, lol.
