Default more interior work

So today I pulled out my dash, cut the slot for the hud which I was amazed how simple a job it was. It was time consuming but simple hooked up my hud, swapped out all the bulbs behind the cluster buttons n door switches for red leds. It came out great, once it gets dark ill snap some pics. I'm loving the new look!

Default HUD display

So the HUD display is an upgrade? I have been wanting to do this to my vert. Seems right where I sit and place the steering wheel I cant see the upper band of my speedo. With the regular windshield how is the HUD display? Great, ok or fuzzy?
Also, looks like you will change your HVAC bulbs soon enough. I did my interior in all red leds and agree looks great, the trunk lights are red also and when I use the remote to unlock at night the whole interior lights up in a red glow! Guys at work really impressed!
