Default <<<C6 HUD installed, $599; NewEngland, Philly, OHIO, LongIsland, Orlando/Miami/Tam>>>




COCOA BEACH, FL

I AM IN FLORIDA JUNE 14TH -18TH, 2012


$599

QUESTIONS?? I really appreciate any feedback from forum members, I have learned a MASSIVE amount of information since 2003 in the Corvette community

Here are some FAQ's

1. What are the parts used? NEW GM parts; HUD projector, HUD switch, bezel, I have a ONE-OFF harness made by an aerospace-spec supplier

2. What does the finished install look like?
You can put it beside a 2011 Corvette with HUD and not find ANY differences, fit, form, function are all the same

3. Do you remove the dash and pull the steering wheel/airbags?
NO, I do not remove the steering wheel and/or airbags or touch the connectors, after 70 cars I have the process down to about 1.5 hours
[COLOR="RoyalBlue"][B]
4. Does the G METER work? Yes, all OEM functions are present
5. Does the A6 shift indicator work? Yes, along with the turn signals and XM Radio if optioned
6. LOCATION? I will typically travel anywhere on the east coast if 5 or more cars are committed, the cost is slightly higher

Does that price come with all of the equipment? If so thats a hell of a price. Installing a HUD can be a PITA especially if you have to remove dash.

thats a hell of a deal then. basicly around 200 bucks for labor is nothing in the grand scheme of things. Too bad you weren't in Houston when I did mine. took me about 8 hours first time I did one.

I cant believe someone on the West Coast hasn't started doing these. If you ever make it to the San Francisco Bay area, I'll be first in line.
