Turn Indicators in HUD
I'd like to see GM send out a software update so the Turn Indicators will be visible in the HUD. Who else would like to see this improvement?

I was a bit surprised when I took delivery of our 2015, 2LT, NPP, that turn signals, radio station functions etc were absent from the HUD. If GM offered a software addition I would add it for sure but I don't think I would shell out a lot of money for that update...........all that stuff was on my last GM car. I'm just guessing that the performance oriented HUD info is more what vette drivers are looking for and turn signals, radio functions etc are what the Cadillac/Buick crowd are expecting.

I'd sooner see blind side indicators in the mirrors, wife's MB E550 has them and they are really a great safety device. I know, there are correct and incorrect ways to set the mirrors that negate the need for the blind side indicators, but ...................

The HUD is an excellent tool. I'm disappointed to learn that the C7 doesn't display the turn signals in it. The HUD can become an "information overload" for some people. I'd say have a few selections of what else you could display.
Seems like a software update could produce that.

The flip side is the turn signal audio is louder than in the C6. I missed the HUD indicator at first, but that was partly because in the C6 it was so difficult to hear if the turn signals were on that I needed the visual.

Yes, C7 NAV and HUD are flashier than the C7, but not as functional. I still luv the HUD. C7 NAV is a huge disappointment, but I'm still glad I got it.

It comes down to "How many indications do you need that your turn signals are on?". I mean, you already have the indicators in the cluster, and the sound, do we really need a third indication in HUD? I'd prefer that space be used for something else since I'm already well aware that the turn signals are on from the cluster and the sound.
