Default Z06 window?

Hello, I have a bullseye that I do not know if it can be repaired, but my ? is do I absoultely need the special Z06 front window for HUD or can I get the regular stock one?

I know it is lighter, but concerned about the impact of the HUD visibility. I believe since the HUD is an option on the regular Vettes that they do not have any special front windowshield. Thanks.

I have an FRC (not ZO6) with HUD. Don't know if anything is different about this from a standard windshield, but no problem seeing the HUD.
