Hud?
was idly thinking about this the other day...
does anyone make an aftermarket Heads Up Display unit for cars something that'd fit in the centre speaker hole in a BA dash? cost? difficulty of install? just be a nice bit of rice

you might want to double check this one with the seller, as they list a different item to what they have pictured

dan, wasn't there a guy selling it on the team azm forum? or i remember reading on a forum,,, it was't listed by itself, it was amongst a punch or other car stuff.
i think it was $400 or something,, don't recall it that well, just remember it was 3 figures and out of my price range |

I'd want to be sure you could get the film stuff that goes on the windscreen just incase. The Nissan Bluebirds that had HUD need a $1,200 windscreen as opposed to the $200 for the one without HUD.

i'm getting the impression that this mod wouldn't be too grand during the day, but hey....
you could look into a darker patch in the windscreen - thats the only way i could see it working any good.... rod you don't happen to know what was special about the windsceen do ya?? i'm thinking exterior mirror/antireflection coat
