Digital HUD Install

Hey all. I'm new to the forums here, and new to Nissan. My friend is a Z enthusiast and has bit me with the Nissan bug, so I'm now looking for a 240sx, though it probably won't happen for another 6 months. Anyway, here is my deal, I was out at the junk yard the other day looking for some parts for my Accord and I ran across a 240sx with a Digital HUD. If i can get it for $10 or something, I figured I'd pick it up, but here is my main question.

Do you need anything special to hook up the digial HUD to a 240sx that uses the standard gauges?

Well im not 100% sure but ive been told u will need a new windsheild that has a small sticker between the glass that the HUD will display on. Dont quote me on this because this is just info a buddy of mine told me about when he attempted to do the same on his 240. He said it would cost between 200-300 canadian for this but once again dont quote me on that.

Besides the display unit and windshield, you need the HUD control module, harness, and gauge cluster. They are cool to look at when they work correctly but expensive to fix and getting old. I would save your money for other things.

i don't think you need the actual HUD windshield, you should be able to get a strip of whatever they use to read the HUD for the windshield.


and please don't bump old threads.
