Uh - it shouldn't affect the HUD as it reflects off the inner surface - but I still wouldn't recommend tinting the windshield - it is highly illegal and it SEVERELY degrades your visibility at all times, making night driving far more hazardous. Have the cops ever said anything about tinting the windshield?

It will get you straight to jail in states I've lived in. FL must be slack.

Some states don't care as much as others. I'm pretty sure the law in Texas is you can only have the top 6" or so tinted. I wouldn't mind having a very light tint put on mine to help knock the glare down some.
