If it seems low, then why don't you buy it if you need it?

There is no PN for the 11 pin harness, GM does not sell it.

email this guy, JoshkerLS1@comcast.net. He says $45 for the harness.

Have You been here?

http://joshker99.home.comcast.net/hudinstall2.htm

It has alot of useful info!!
I plan on doing this to my `98 after I collect all the goodies.
Does your `99 have a HUD enabled Instrument Cluster? Thats half the cost of the upgrade!

not the harness you really need. Your cluster may be HUD ready, but you are still missing the 11 pin harness.

I have a few original GM 11pin HuD harnesses. I'll let them go at $65 shipped. These are not aftermarket. I was the first to build the "homemade" harnesses and quit soon afterward because the wires had a tendency to pull out. While the chance is low...do you really want to remove the console and dash to get back in there and redo it??? I can take paypal and ship within 24 hours UPS.

The projector's have fallen way down in price...you're going to love the HUD display!

thanks
can anyone figure out the shipping charges thru GMPARTSDIRECT.
if you go on website and go thru checkout, they provide "S&H Approx".
which is listed as follows;


Shipping Methods
In the 48 contiguous states of the USA the minimum handling and shipping charge is just $7.95$ for the first part on the order and a discount off minimum handling and shipping fee from each additional item not to go below 20% of the cost of the item order, whichever is greater (unless specified on larger sized items). If you live in a territory or Alaska or Hawaii, we'll add the actual handling and shipping charges to your invoice.


I interpet this as min of 20% of order for shipping,Has anyone ordered HUD Projector,Switch and Bezel from them? If so was the quoted shipping the same as actual billed shipping?

I got an email from Gene last week, stating the C5 proj only was $220. I just pd $115 for a used one, but would have paid $50 extra for a new one if that price was right.

The projector itself has a cord built in that connects to the top of the instrement gauges-

The 11pin "harness" the you refer to, gos from the left side hud dash controls to the side of the instument gagues-


I just got done doing the install- I went and bought a used setup, because no one sells the side harness new-
