Pulled down the rear cabinets and rear headliner in my continuing search for additional mouse habitat (mostly clear this time). In the process discovered a couple of cracks in the plastic end piece that had been hidden by the cabinets. Pictures:

So the obvious questions: What could have caused this? Is it dangerous per se or is whatever caused it potentially dangerous? Should I think about fixing it (how?) or just let it go?
Thanks for your help.

Wow. What a job. Thanks Gene, I think. Frankly that's a whole lot more work than I want to do. As opposed to the front headliner section in your link, the rear is one piece half way down the wall. Not even sure I could get it out without pulling rear and both side windows. I'm inclined to leave them unless leaving the cracks unrepaired would have consequences. When I put the cabinets back up I won't be able to see them, and out of sight... OTOH, the yellowing is another issue, and if there were something I could use to return the original white color, that might be worth the effort.
Thanks
J

Jay,
Nothing takes out the discoloration except paint. I have tried
spray can paint with little luck. Even using Kills I still had a lot
of streaking problems. Until I got out a commercial spray gun
I was not satisfied with painting results. Others might have had
better luck. Lets see what they report.
