Heads up Display March 05, 2011, 04:12:51 PM Anyone have anything like this? I test drove a new camaro a couple weeks ago and it had one, and I liked it. It seems like a pretty cool way to get the "Star Wars" digital tachometer appearance, in a whole new way. I know this one is made in Taiwan, just wondering if anyone had one, etc. http://cgi.ebay.com/HUD-HEAD-Up-Display-speed-rpm-water-temp-volt-Gauge_W0QQitemZ320661081813QQcategoryZ33678QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp5197.m263QQ_trkparmsZalgo=RPSI%2BSI&itu=UCP%2BUA%2BMAGEXP%2BUCI%2BFICS&otn=10&pmod=290505530474&po=LPV%2BLVI&ps=63&clkid=7483330036548753138 Quote Selected

Stuff on top of my dash bothers me. I don't have an issue either, just sorta though it was cool, and it would be one way to get the full digital tachometer without the economy on the far right side.

Heads up Display Reply #6 – March 06, 2011, 02:31:16 PM SpeedView for Android has a nice UI. I really like it. If had OBD II support I'd use it over Torque, which also has a HUD mode... that I don't ever use since I have a car dock.It's 0-60 mode seems to error on the optimistic side though. Gave me a 5.0sec 0-60 after bogging bad at launch. =/https://market.android.com/details?id=com.codesector.speedview.free&feature=search_result Quote Selected

Heads up Display Reply #11 – March 07, 2011, 10:11:36 AM several years ago we did this here on the board but I cant find the threads to it. I cant remember who did it but with a base electronic cluster, just the speedo,,you can flip the lense backwards and it works.what was suppose to happen next is someone was to mount the speedo module on the dash so it reflects off the windshield at night.I proposed it be mounted in the center under that cover if you dont have auto lamps since it seemed like a perfect fit and location.this is way back when we were all doing the speedo mod to get the display to go past 85.

Interesting! I never though of that. I have a base digital cluster I use for parts. I would cut the connector off, and splice them into the one on the car, so they would all read the same, put a piece of tape over the odometer on the HUD unit, and it should work, I would think, maybe, lol.

The one I listed has a Tachometer though, which is the reason for this, lol. I want a digital style tachometer. Quote Selected
