Default 2006 coupe. Installed new Eclipse head unit, totally lost heads-up display.

Did a full rip/replace of the sound system in my 2006 coupe, and installed crazy cowboy's insulation kit. Sounds amazing...but I lost the heads-up display (speedometer/odometer/etc.). Eclipse has no answer...Columbus Car Audio has no answer... Is there a happy answer to this?

Is the heads-up display wired/routed through the OEM Bose head unit? Wiring issu? Wiring harness issue? Used a Peripheral harness/adapter. I had the upgraded Base sound system, no NAV

Thanks in advance for any info...Bear

Did you check the fuse for the HUD? Installed a Kenwood DNX-8120 in my 07 and HUD still works just fine. Just a thought. Mike

I talked to install dude and asked him same question. He'll check that when he returns to his shop. Also, make sure HUD is on. Battery was un-hooked for 2 days...

This might sound stupid but....I was working on the ip cluster (pulled it out half way looking for a rattle) and I hit the down button of the projector without knowing and projector was all the way down under the dash, I went crazy for about an hr..
trying to figure why I had no HUD on the windshield...Hope this helps.

This problem has all the makings of teh "DUH" of the day award.

...just talked to install dude...>HUD is up and running! He won;t say why...all he says is "DUH"

Wait until you see this install, it is absolutely gorgeous and stealth and sounds amazing...

Eclipse 2Din head unit, DVD, NAV, all touch screen
JL Audio 5/500 amp in a custom amp rack behind the seats
Boston Acoutics Pro-series 3 way components in the doors
Boston Acoutics Pro-series 6.5 mid-bass drivers in the column (rears)
Boston Acoutics Pro-series 10.5LF Subwoofer in a custom woofer enclosure in the driver side cubby in the back

The amp rack is integrated with the partition everyone is buying out here, so it is completely stalth from the cabin view and maitains the privacy into the back of the car.

...and the sound...
