Can you post some pics? The dash warp was only a problem that occurred on '99 and '00 Contours ... I'm curious to see yours.

HAHA, I just noticed my last picture post shows the dash lifting. I swear when I looked at the pictures it couldn't be seen. It is right above the gauge cluster, to the left side of it.

Wow - that's some odd warp. (Typical warp occurs in the '99-'00 dashes up top by the front windshield defroster vents, where '98s are immune because they have an extra piece going along that area, and, I think different plastics?). I've never seen warping in that spot before ... you have quite the unique Contour
