HUD spelled backwards is DUH...You already have guages that are easy to read.. besides anyone that can dial a cellphone while driving can surely glance down at the speedometer every once in a while...

Since most of these cars come prewired I would not doubt if later on you simply pop in the unit. I know it is supposed to use a special glass but I'de be willing to bet it still works preatty good. I'll probably wait till someone else tries it. I din't look on top of the dash in the camaros in Ft lauderdale it may not have the cutout. If you go to the dealers even the vetts that don't have it have a panel you can remove where it goes.
