My advise would be to cut a piece of aluminum plate larger than the hole and put it behind the opening and have someone (reputable) TIG weld the hole in and build it up a small amount. Then it would have to be ground down and sanded to blend in with the rest of the dash. Then it should be buffed with a buffing wheel and jewelers rouge to hide any imperfections and make it shine like the rest of the dash. This would probably give the best color match and maybe make it invisible. L8R----Fred OH
