Default lumps on dashboard



What is up with honda s2000 dashboard. I have about 6 lumps the size of a dime/penny along with other small ones.

This is an '06.

My previous S '07, I had to get a dash replacement with wrinkle lines going across.

Anybody think I can poke the lumps with a needle ?


If I pressed it down with my thumb, it would stay for a good 30 minutes and reappear.

you're in la, i assume you get a lot of sun. Maybe a sun visor with windows cracked is in order. Second car, with similar issues...

Consider that the dash can get 140f+ in direct sun.

I understand your reasoning. But when I had my '07 dash replacement, after 10 months the problems came back. The car was in the garage overnight, etc.

I guess honda used 1980 dashboard .

I'm not sure if you were kidding, but since nobody's said it, don't poke it with a needle. It's not a blister, it won't drain.

I had something similar in my previous S2000 on two spots. It was a MY99. In my MY03 that I currently drive there is no issue at all. Also in my girlfriend's MY01 S2000, there is nothing visible there. I think those... lumps will be visible eventually, because of the dashboard over-exposure to the sun and heat.

I was not kidding about using a syringe with some glue (gorilla or something) and poke it in .
