I miss my turn signals
I miss my turn signal indicators in the HUD display on the C7. In my C5 they are in the HUD. With the signals in the HUD I can see when they have not canceled after a turn or lane change. On the C7 they are near the top of the IP display where I cannot easily see them.
As someone who is officially in the "Old Fart Club" driving down the road with my turn signal flashing seems acceptable but drives me nuts.
Am I missing something in the settings to get these to display?
Sorry if I did I am still learning.

HUD has more than my C6 and very useful. The delay in achieved "g" force reading, dots when you near redline, gear and color change when in rev match. Rather have those and let sound handle the directional signals and sound warning if left on too long.

I also miss the turn signals being in the HUD. Where they are located on the dash of my C7, they are blocked by the steering wheel..

One of the answers in "Ask Tadge" by Corvette Engineers touched on this topic. They wanted to add the turn signal indicators to the HUD, but GM Corporate said no.
I have a 2017 XT5 Cadillac with HUD. I would like turn signal indicators in that HUD, but they are not there. This is apparently a GM standard policy for some reason. Could it be some lawyer said it is a distraction and they do not want the liability?

No methinks there's some sort of additional hardware needed to send the signal to the HUD and they decided to save $$$ or weight (though I wouldn't think it would be that heavy).

In addition to turn signal the high beam indicator is also missing. I agree this is a step to the rear. Just bought a new Escalade with heads up--same situation as my C7.
