There are no aftermarket HUD kits available

Iphone HUD

And this more conventional unit:
Defi HUD

Yeah, the thing is they aren't as effective as you would hope. Its a cool idea, but its 1) kinda tough to do when its not built into the car 2) looks a little ugly to have the unit sitting on top of the dash. 3) fades with bright sunlight.

Also you have to get the angle right and lock in the position which is kinda hard.

Maybe if you tell us what its going to be used for we can help you out better.

I saw those things sitting there and I dont want that at all. I want everything to look clean and stock looking when I do things to my car. Your link did help, thanks.

I remember the digital spedo HUD in my 92 240SX SE Coupe. I was quite disappointed when I picked up my 97 240 and it was all analog, although the white-faced backlit gauges were awesome

The HUD is one of the few things I miss about my Corvette. But I'm learning to live without it.
