No, I wish that would make life a lot easier! The hard part is going to be seeing if there is room IN the dash for the unit, right now I've got it sitting on top of the IP and its definitely not pretty but not in the way either... There is a lot more to be done here LOL

edit: or maybe out of your z06?

A device that projects certain information on the windscreen. Head Up Display (HUD).

Grand Prix has them, not sure what year, I think my niece's is a 2006-07 or so and it looks great.

We bought our 16 yr old son a loaded 2005 Grand Prix that does have the HUD. We had never had it on a car...mainly because we assumed it would be somewhat distractive. However..I quickly learned to like it and it doesn't block vision at all. Pretty neat really!

Bonneville's had it also. Quite a few cars had it awhile ago.

Would be a nice feature/option.

I believe the new Buick Lacrosse has an optional HUD. There is also an aftermarket HUD. See link.

i drove a 2010 v6 camaro with it so im assuming all the new camaro's has it....and also the camaro is one of the cars GTPprix has worked on.....

My Bonneville had it...I liked it, but I don't really miss it. What was cool was that it displayed radio stations, CD number and track numbers. Of course it also displayed speed, but I still found myself glancing down at the speedometer most of the time. I guess that habit was hard to break.

IIRC, the installation of an HUD requires either a different windshield or at least a special coating to improve the reflectivity of the display.
