To be completely legal, you should change the vin out on the dash. From the looks of it you can use a screwdriver and pry the sucker up. As for attaching it on the new dash, you can probably use some 3M adhesive for body panels. I would call up the local or state police department and run your idea by them and see what they say. Changing out the vin with yours is just a good idea in case something bad every happens to your car, its the first place to look for a positive ID.

It's on with rivets, you drill out the old ones, and install the new one with 2 new rivets. This is a 2 sided thing, you're not suppossed to tamper with the Vin tag, but you're suppossed to have the right vin. I switched mine, if the occasion ever arises that someone asks, just explain.
