    Nice! I had mine done at a dealer for just about twice the cost, plus they broke the side clips and told me they were already broken, which was a lie. Was the windshield HUD compatible?

    Did insurance pay any of it?

    Yes the windshield is HUD compatible. See the markings etched on the glass near the end of what I posted. The only thing that I notice is that the display is bigger and slightly at an angle but I’ve gotten used to the change. The glass tech told me that the HUD works because of how the film (that’s sandwiched between the 2 pieces of glass) is positioned. He said that the film has a “grain” but I don’t understand that. All I know is that it works.
