Congrats!! Looks great.

How did you attach the bezel to the dash? Screw, glue, etc...

Congrats on a successful install!

When I bought my vert it wasn't an option I had to have but the one I found and bought had it. I don't know what I'd do without it now. Love my HUD!

This pic looks pretty scary :

That's a great mod! But why are the pictures placed so screwy on the post?

Hi Oak,

Congratulations, good buddy. WOW! What an outstanding job you have done! BTW, I sure love the fourth and fifth pic. It can make the hair on anyone's neck stand up just to see the interior of a C5 opened up and taken apart like that. Although this mod is a little involved, it is a great enhancement. Thank you for sharing the pics. Now, enjoy.

Best Wishes to You,
Eden
