Never mind I figured it out thanks. 

What brand is your HUD windshield? Where did you purchase it and was easy to get?Having trouble finding one for mine, that's the only thing stopping me from doing the mod. Also how much was it if you dont mind. Thanks!

I am looking hard at this. But I know there has to be a way you save the defroster vent. You guys have contributed so much, I guess this will be my contribution. My first thought is cutting out the section at the hud projector, then modifying a patch between the two openings that dips below the hud projector or multiple paths around the projector. I am able to 3d print in an area 500mm x500mm x 500mm.

Also curious if anyone tried a factory mounting bracket?

 

The suburban heads up display projector is thinner I wonder if it's functionally similiar. Seems like you could use the speaker bezel from one of the vehicles.

I am having no luck proving an SUV windshield will work in a truck using GM part numbers. Even if I look at NO HUD windshields the vehicle fitments only list SUV and the truck windshields only list trucks.

 

If the truck and SUV windshields are truly interchangeable I will ask for an OEM windshield for a 2017 Tahoe with heads up display.  The camera bracket (lane departure/assist) p/n is the same for a 2017 tahoe and silverado. But the cameras are not the same.

This will probably be my next project. Installed the intellihaul cameras. I think I'm ready to tackle this project next.

I bought the intelli-haul through my local dealer and had them install it.
I have the tow mirror cams, front cam, bed cam and a remote trailer cam.
Works great! Turn signals show the tow mirror cam when used.
I did a video a while ago demonstrating this.

The intellihaul system is pretty cool

The HUD reflection will show up on the regular windshield. It will be a little blurry and show double information. But it will work. The tint on the lower part of the windshield will solve that problem.

3-D glasses work too. :)

@Todd1982youre a genius!!! I never did that on my 2018 High Country when I did the retrofit however did combine a Silverado & Tahoe cluster hood to make my own and had it wrapped in Saddle Brown! Here are two of the many pics I took I will try and upload more

    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future. 
    • Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it. 
    • Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me. 
    • $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
