Default Retrofitting a HUD...

I found this old thread...pretty extensive

http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...35&highlight=A

Now, does anyone have a larger version of this image? Zooming in with Preview just makes it blurry



F14'* supercar, naturally, should have a HUD

Another that did a swap (for Badnit).

You'll need the FSM for your car and the hud pinouts. Then it'* easy to merely find the right wiring from your dash to tap into.

Just make sure you don't buy a 2000+ HUD for an older model year. These won't work for you.

Ed - don't post pictures of the FSM. Posting them violates copywrite laws. Thanks!

Actually..that pinout may or may not work for you. Which car did your hud come from? I believe the 92-99 bonnes are all alike...you will want to check though and also check if it'* from another car.
