HUD install in Indiana
Has anyone installed a HUD in their 2LT that lives in Indiana. I am thinking about adding one, but I was hoping to find someone to look over my shoulder to make sure I do not make any mistakes.

I sure did! I found 2 videos, but in both cases they already had a HUD installed. Not sure if that matters or not. One used the "cut the duct" method and the other lifted the entire dash. The dash removal looks like a PITA.
Once I get the gauge cluster out and the duct cut, I am a bit lost. I am just assuming I need to push out the HUD cover in the dash, install the new HUD and wire it up. There just is not a lot of detail on part of the project, but maybe that is where the installation instructions that come with the HUD will fill in those gaps.
I am pretty sure I can do it, but I am still nervous.
