Very cool. Wish this thing would display everything that the obd2 port sends like the aeroforce gauge does, that'd be sweet if it would show speed/rpm and have a couple of user selectable fields. Let us know how it works out for you along with basic install pics if you can, I'd rather not trim my dash for this thing.

yeah i was gonna mention the 89 GP turbo but was trying to figure out the oldest car it was in. FWIW here is a motorweek segment on the turbo grand prix that shows the HUD at 5:15

not sure about the shifter, but with the exception of the headrests, the T/A had the same seats from ~ 1987-1995 and then they only changed the lower half of the seat until the end of the run. that's why i was able to still get an upper seat pad for my car last year.

this is a pair of awesome finds. I think ill be doing this, flushing it into my dash, and then getting the splitter for the interceptor gauge thats in the bezel.
also; i wonder where the vids from... RHD vw, left lane driving, old school pickup and very 'american' cars...

Sorry dude, but it doesn't have RPM, doesn't update fast, and you have to go through the trouble every time you get in your car to turn the GPS on, then open the HUD application, then if it's buggy - make sure it's set to the proper settings, and then make sure it's detecting the GPS module properly, and then find a place on the dashboard to stick it so it doesn't move and the image isn't distorted... and that's every time you get in your car!
