C6 HUD in a C5?
Drove a friends Melliniem Yellow Vert a few days ago and I love the new HUD. Anyone know if you could swap out the C6 HUD for the C5 HUD?

I would imagine that there is more to it than just replacing the HUD itself. Something has to measure the lateral G's so I would think that there are sensors, new computers, etc. May be a little cost prohibitive.
