Default HUD conversion
Can anyone recommend a HUD conversion kit?
The usual sources seem to be drying up.

Thanks,

I got mine from thepartsladi@gmail.com back in August. I have a spare dimmer switch and bezel, both new, if you need them.

Not sure if he still sells them, but did you try forum member Pace This?

Also, you could try Gene at gmpartshouse.com.

Default PaceThis can help you
Josh Meeks (PaceThis) on the forum sold me my HUD conversion setup. He was Fantastic! His instructions were also very good.

The job went well, and my only heart-stopping moment was cutting the dash cover. Nothing went wrong, but it is just really scary cutting into your baby like that.

Don't bother with gmpartshouse. They burned me on this same transaction. If interested, shoot me a pm and I'll give you the details.
