I have one, have had it in my car for about 1 year and a half now. I have the full HUD display in my car though. They make a Basic (the one you posted) and another that has more functions and use the Defi Link. The Basic doesn't do gauges. It only does MPH and a shiftlight with RPM's. The full HUD system is able to do other gauges, but you will need to buy the sensors from Defi to tap into the Defi link.. The sensors are almost as much as separate gauges!

It's a neat mod.. If you're going to tap the RPM through the ECU, you will run into voltage issues with a Utec. Also the sticky reflective screen that is suppose to be on the windshield can be applied with soapy water like overlays.. this way you can move and adjust it.. don't be like me and attempt to stick it on dry.. Oh.. and you can also contact a Tein dealer to get replacement stickies just incase you replace your windshield or something.. The box usually comes with 2.



Edit--
Here's mine..

^ Nice

I thought it looked more like the c6 corvette HUD. I didnt realize u needed to place a special film tocapture the screen. Eh, doesnt seem so stealth anymore.

Anyone else have one of these for boost?
