Default C8 - Any HUD differences?

Maybe I missed this but has any former C7 owners noted any differences on the C8 HUD? I'd be surprised if GM didn't improve it in one way or another. They usually do.

Thanks

A ton of differences. Search the forum and you'll find photos and videos showing the new HUD displays.

i wonder if the image displayed has that same strange phenomenon where the image appears crooked (due to the angle of the windshield)?
I know on 18s and later you can rotate the image thank god.. used to drive me nuts on my 16.. on my 19 i have it rotated alot to make it appear level.

From the Owners Manual:

Turn signal indicators are back.

I never understood why people thought the c7 had a crooked HUD. I have a 2014 and it looks level to me.

You know, never mind. I don't want to know. I don't see it and if someone points it out, I might not un-see it.

Its an illusion as the display isnt paralell to the hood which is on an angle. Never bothered me.

I thought I had pushed all the buttons in my '19, but apparently I've missed one or two. How do you rotate the HUD?
