How about using RTV for gluing the dash pad?  Would give you some
adjustment period unlike contact cement and it should have plenty of
holding power.

     Here's another vote for RTV for holding trim in place.  I used it for 
     the Tiger scripts, the badges just below, and one or two of the 
     SUNBEAM letters on the trunk. These were installed in 1977, and 
     haven't moved since.  I give them a little tug once in a while, just 
     to be sure, but all seems well.  
     
     Some RTV's are better than others for gluing purposes, so read the 
     labels carefully.  At the time I used some Dow Corning stuff I 
     borrowed from work.  Recently I found that the Permatex clear RTV 
     stuck way too well to some things I didn't want to get it on....
