I'm looking forward to the pics. I think I have everything I need except the camaro bezel.  One more question to make sure I have everything on hand before I start...Is there existing hardware in the dash to mount the HUD unit? Or is the a package from GM that can be ordered? If not, can you share the specs of the hardware (size/thread/length)?  Thanks.

This are the 2 spots/areas where I mounted my hud, there’s is an existing tab coming out of the main dash support and another closer to the firewall, the one from the firewall has to be drill because is covered by the cab body, and you have to build the support for the other tab as you can see on the picture., i bought a 1/2 (I think) aluminum hollow pipe at Home Depot and screw and nut..
with this being said this are the older pictures not the ones I used time, I had to install the hud under the tab(dash support) and lower the 2nd support so that hud is under/lower than dashboard, so basically same concept.

Progress update.! Finally had the time to do the pre-install work measuring and fitting HUD to our gen 5 dashboard frame and dashboard itself. ***Note*** After doing measurements i realize what I wa

I finally was able to replace my non HUD windshield for HUD equipped one and the Difference is day and night.. my phone can’t really capture the perfect shape image but here’s a few pictures I snapped

Hey guys, I’m sorry if I haven’t responded to your messages. As some of you know the truck I did this HUD retrofit was stolen and I was a little sad about everything I’ve done to it.. fortunately I wa

I don’t, but I’ll be doing Phil’s speaker grille with the Camaro trim piece just like mine and I’ll take picture this time.

 

 

I've got my fingers crossed that when you are working on Phil's truck that the two of you will produce a kick-ass how to video to share with the rest of us ?

[emoji23] - How to install HUD. “Buy all the stuff and install it”. [emoji12][emoji12]With something like this, it’ll be tough because the end goal is to get it done. When you factor documentation (whether it he written or video), that takes time. When I produce the videos, it literally takes all day to capture the most important parts. Then post production editing.. that’s like a job in itself default_smile.png. I’ve shot some video on the introduction of HUD and when I get around to it, I’ll try shoot more video.

From my research it looks like the replacement HUD windshield for our trucks will be out of a Yukon.  The windshield place I talk to said the heads up display windshield will come with brackets for rain sense and lane departure. Is there one that does not have these brackets?

 

Does anyone have any part numbers?

Thanks.

My windshield guy says that the windshield you posted comes with brackets for rain sensor and camera.  Since my truck has neither of these features he says that these brackets will just be hanging out in the open and not look very good.  Did your truck utilize these brackets? 

 

He said he can't find a HUD windshield that does not have these brackets.

 

Anyone have any leads?

All of them will have the brackets as they didn’t make any hud equipped vehicles that didn’t have those options. That being said you could use the camera cover trim to cover it up :)

That might be the solution...

 

How does this trim piece attach? Will my need an upgraded mirror or anything?

Should just clip on, if you want to shoot us an email I can send you the diagram and likely part numbers if you want!

A lot of good stuff here guys. I've already done the denali cluster swap on my '14 Sierra and had the HUD enabled at the time. Yesterday I got a good size rock chip and now the windshield needs to be replaced. Does anyone have the actual part number of the Yukon HUD windshield needed? My truck has the lane assist so all the mounts behind the rear view mirror. I was reading the correct Yukon windshield only comes in 1 flavor but the generic picture on GM parts shows that windshield not to have the lane assist. Is the correct HUD windshield that will fit in my '14 with lane assist P/N 84352103?

 

Also, will all Denali clusters work or does it have to be a Denali cluster from a Yukon? Is there a plug I can check on my cluster to make sure I have the right one?

 

Thanks

Wow... I can't believe I watched almost the whole thing!  That is definitely a job I wouldn't want!

      Trading 7.3 (Godzilla) for G.M.C gas

      By James Beyer · Posted

      Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-

      Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
