Default HUD disappearing

Hello,

I have a 2000 FRC with HUD. My HUD has slowly been moving down on the windshield until it has almost disappeared. Each time I have adjusted the postion higher, but it is now at the highest setting. I can move the HUD down and back up, but it will not move any higher. It seems like a fitting is loose that holds it in position. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

El Duderino

Sounds like the gear or stop that holds the mirror in the projector may be bad. If so, the projector will have to come out and be replaced. Good luck...sorry, I can't help more than that...
