Kit hasn't arrived to me yet--hopefully I see it in the next day or so. Putting those lights in the HUD would be a really slick setup if done cleanly

I'm actually looking forward to it the more that I think about it. If it works like it should I might try to put one inside the HUD. We'll see

That's my plan as well. I'd like it hidden on mine as much as possible.

I got my shipping notification, too! Depending on how this works, I might actually order a couple more for the other cars. This is getting exciting!

Man, I'd love to mount this up in the HUD for sure.

I had sequential shift lights in a car I built years ago. It was just a series of 6 progressive lights that blinked at the end. It was a kit I bought and installed in my gauge cluster. When you're at speed though, I'd much prefer to see through the HUD.

Look forward to see what's happening here.

Hooked it up to power last night and it came on--going to play with it more this weekend

I actually like the idea of it in the HUD the more I think about it

I'll put a signal generator on it tomorrow to see how well it actually works. I just wanted to show off my new oscilloscope for now, even though it's not being used

These lights are super bright--I don't expect anyone will have any trouble seeing them
