HUD quick question?
Does an oem USA heads up display show both kms & miles? I live in Canada and found a good price on the whole setup, but I want to see kms not miles.

I recently added HUD to my '99 FRC, and I really have enjoyed it. It's a great addition for your C5.

It changes by selecting the E/M switch on the DIC panel along with all the other readings.
There are some good How Tos on the Forum to show how to fit the HUD

English and metric units"
You can also use this button to change from fahrenheit to celsius
