Drooping HUD
I once saw a thread that explained about the HUD sitting on a pin that gets worn. I can't find it the thread now. I'm pulling the instrument cluster and would like to replace that pin.

You have to pull the whole dash pad. Not terribly bad, but time consuming.
I had to have mine done too when I bought my car.
Just a tip, get a new HUD dash bezel from the dealer and replace it while you are in there. they tend to get crispy from the sun and crack suddenly.
Easy swap while you have everything apart.
Another tip, if your flasher in acting up, it would also be a good time to replace it. The parts are cheap.
You should be able to find a how to pull the pad out write up on this forum.
