I have a 98, what does it cost to add the HUD and does it require a different windshield? Just curious as HUD appears to be the only option my car does not have, not even sure if it was available in the 98.
You do not need the HUD windshield. Technically there is a difference in the HUD one and regular (and about $1,000 difference in price) but you will NOT be able to tell any difference in real life.
Do a search and you should find a thread or 100 that goes through exactly what you need. It really isn't a lot of parts, though.
Hey vette.mix, I had to send mine to pacethis to have it corrected but if you want to do it I would get on it because he is selling all the equipment very soon. Oh the mileage is in the big board not the small one in the corner. I tried swapping the small one but it was no change. Oh by the way vette.mix, I just got done with the HUD install. went pretty good.
I also tried swapping the small green board at the bottom left of the cluster and it DID NOT change the mileage,i sent mine to get done to PACETHIS a while back and had great service and it was done correctly!
Could you recommend some equipment? Currently we're using J-2534 to do the basic programming needed for most vehicles. this happens to be the last thing we're missing right now... thanks for any help you can give.
Please note that replacing 1997-early 1999 Instrument Cluster with late 1999 to 2004 requires relocation of one bulb for airbag warning light from one location to another, there is a separate topic for that though the picture is no longer there
Here is the picture. Big thanks to whoever made this picture in the past!

Please note that there is also a good YouTube video (not mine but by TM) how to swap remove and install Instrument Cluster without entirely removing dashboard and pain with glove box. Just remember that video talks about one cable while it is correct for None-HUD for HUD Instrument cluster there is an extra cable going out to HUD.
Hi Gusto14, It is funny you say that because it is the same link I posted the answers myself there and I just wanted to provide the link in case someone is looking for the answers under this topic: "Tech II (need to correct mileage for an HUD install)"
You are just quoting the same link that I did above.
That means I am doing something right.
