I am very happy with my new HUD, it might not be the most fancy that BMW gives as an option but it gets the job done looking really nice and pretty. I know its not the best picture but enough to get your attention

My friends who have HUD on their cars from BMW like it more than the one they currently have.


Cant ask for more

What you guys think ?

Did I forget to say that its as clear in sunlight as it is now

Is that your phone? I used an app that did that and it was in the BMW orange. I didn't like it because when I got a call I had to reach over and grab the phone lol. If it is not your phone then More pics or BAN lol.

I saw something similar to it in one of those car magazine. Not sure if It's the same type but the one I saw was an attachment adapter that you place onthe dash with wires connecting to the speedo. Not sure how the wires are connected though.

OP please list link to the unit so some of us can add this. Thanks

Does it only show MPH, or does it have other features? Like the OEM HUD shows quite a few different functions of the car. +1 on where you got it...
