There are a couple of options, depending on the cracks. There is the 
overlay that covers the top of the dash, an example below on Ebay (but 
price is already getting close to what you can get from a Moss reseller I 
think). It installs easily and looks good if cracks are confined to the 
usual places.

Or if you are less lucky and the dash has cracks or splitting on the 
instrument face area, there is the complete dash overlay (or at least it 
fits over the metal frame part of the dash). A much tougher install, but I 
will most likely go this route in a few months on my 72B (which already had 
the top overlay installed by the previous owner). The entire dash face will 
cost more around $125 if I recall correctly whereas the top overlay is more 
like $40.
