It'* the coolest gizmo on the car. Freaks people out. You see the speed projected....it looks like it'* green digital numbers out in front of the car....floating there. Pretty wild. Hardly ever look at the real speedo.
I love my HUD! Mine'* a little off though...about 5 mph higher than the speedometer. Is there any way to calibrate that so they are the same....maybe a handy-dandy reset or soemthing?

p.*. Don't try this on busy streets because everone looks at you funny.
p.p.*. Maybe Bill could put this in the TechInfo section.
That'* funny! Big problem. Amy'* arms are too short. Have somebody else drive, and you lean over the windshield out the sunroof. It'll be easier to do! I don't think there'* a calibration possible. I'd say you HUD is accurate, and your speedo is lagging. Pulling your cluster and cleaning it with air (BLOWING it) or lightly lubricating it may help. Wait a little while, and I'll do it for you

They have a Tach on their HUD too.. which in my opinion is what'* missin on our HUD
If you're thinking what I'm thinking, you need to buy a newer Bonneville! The 02 has the tach and radio freq on the HUD. I don't know what year that started. Adding anything is a huge job, but we actually have a pre-92 owner who added the whole HUD like ours. He'* an electrical Engineer. It works great, but he doesn't have the $1200 windshield, so he has a double 'ghosted' image.
