I got quoted for 300$ with HUD, if I had one. I was just curious what they ran when being replaced.

That HUD WS is probably chinese manufacture. A couple have been installed here, and the owners were NOT pleased. Ripply, ghosted, etc. VERY low quality. OEM Hud WS'* are well over $1k installed.

You wouldn't notice imperfections in it like a HUD car would.

Careful, bud. I know where you live

I just think the HUD cars need to be a wee more picky than the non-hud. A cheap knockoff would be VERY obvious on an SSE/SSEi. This is a good reason to keep your glass deductible LOW.
