i would hope that they install the OEM.....and i see your point


But there is always the junkyard soultion to the HUD windshield

Problem out here is that we DON'T use salt. That means we use sand and gravel in the winter.

I was going to add a HUD to my SLE because it drives me nuts not having it after I drive the SSEi, but I figured it'* not worth it. A big piece of the puzzle is the windshield. I'm not willing to go that far for a sharp image.


its called glass coverage, and im still planning it
Honestly and integrity go a long way.
But a brick goes farther

After seeing your skills with putting buttons where they don't belong, the wiring jobs you've done, and your ability to scavenge parts, I wouldn't put it past you.
