    Gauge Cluster Idea

    Hmm. I don't know if anyone else has thought of this. I was thinking it would be pretty cool to have those gauges that go on toop of the dash and evertying that project on the winsheild. Like the fighter jets, seen them in Vettes and stuff. My friend actually has a 90's Nissan Maxima and the speedo is anolog.. but at night when the lights are on there is a digital one that projects onto the winsheild. Anyone know where to get the stuff to do it and how much it would cost?

    Id be a PITA, those windshields have a grid to reflect the light in them anyway.

      Head Up Display would be cool. Maybe have a visor that drops down and project the digital on that.

      My worst enemies are those who presume me to be harmless. They cannot imagine how much I resent and disdain them, or just how great a threat they would face if I could get at them. Everything in their behavior speaks of insult and presumptuousness, and for now it is all I can do to make constructive use of my anger toward them. At this time, I just make a list of them and keep a watch on. Some day, with the help of time, space, and circumstance, I will be able to humiliate them properly - not in a manner they would enjoy, but in a style calculated to make them wish that they had never been born.

        My dad's 2002 grand prix has heads up display and it works pretty nicely. You can raise and lower the position, brighten or dim the display. I'm sure they offer something like that aftermarket. Don't even know whether GM/ Delco, ect. actually produced their own or used another company's. The new Buick Lucerne's heated washer fluid spray which is supposedly GM "innovation" is simply the aftermaket Hotshot system.

          Im sure some type of film exists to turn glass into a HUD surface - I bet with some modding to the dash pad you could fit some kind of display unit into the central 6x9 speaker hole.

            Hmm. So what exactly would you look for as far as the gauges go? I'm sure a window place could get one custom made, who knows how much that would cost though.

              Newer Lincolns that have all digital dashes are what you are looking for. They project the entire cluster from the bottom of the dash pad to where you see it.
