    It’s funny you say this exact thing because all week long I didn’t once have my speedometer on my screen. I like to watch my average fuel tank reading a lot of the time and I have my miles until empty up a lot of the time. I also check some of the other random stuff that have nothing to do with the gauges but more accessories.

    MY SUGGESTIONS OF CHANGES:

    Sample:

    3E378E2C-60FA-4B4A-9C7A-E3E356A63993.jpg

    FBC83F27-C759-4034-B060-AF246986F874.jpg

    Where the yellow is on the display is actually the Amber that I have circled above.

    Changes:

    109A611F-5869-44D7-A21E-DF3E94654ED5.jpg

    0A1C6389-102E-4BD3-8F02-7F84909CB6C5.jpg

    I don’t know why but my color is showing up more green on here but it is actually the Blue I have circled above. That is the closest one I thought was like our OEM Blue. I also kept the yellow in the picture yellow to match what we have on our gauge LED. I’m pretty sure ours is a Yellow LED. The Clock is upper right hand corner of display. I do not have their truck image so I just added ours so you get the idea. :thumbsup:

    Just giving this, so that it can be used as the placeholder for the HUD.

    Instead of the shot of the center multimedia screen.

    Someone linked me to your website (which I didn't even know existed first of all) in a different thread and poking around on there I saw this. This looks super cool! Not sure if I'll want it, but going to subscribe to the thread and see how it looks in its final form in people's trucks. Maybe I'll be convinced... :cool:

    You come up with so many awesome products!

    I have no idea why you'd want the speedometer on the center display, the speedo gauge is right next to it! Having the HUD would be more convenient though so you don't even have to look down. My wife's old Grand Prix had one and it was nice, I'll admit. For the center display though, I usually keep the compass there, not because I care about my direction but because that is where they also put the speed limit display and I like to keep that up so I know how fast I should be going.

    This wouldn't really work for us here in New York as the stickers for the inspection and registration are stuck to the inside of the windshield. Not the outside. So if there was a piece of film or something similar we needed to stick in the spot of the stickers to give a solid background, we actually would be sticking it over the stickers and then we couldn't peel them off and put the new ones on when we needed to replace them... Lol Sorry us NY folk are being so difficult.

    There’s a reasonable chance the stickers my simply be cling/static based and not actually use an adhesive. And if not, I’m sure they can be sourced.

    Wife’s ride has HUD but no stickums, so it’s possible to not need them, just don’t know how bright they will be without them.

    Don't worry, it's not just the New Yorkers. Texas also has the registration sticker on the inside of the windshield in that location. They did at least finally do away with needing a second sticker for the inspection though.

    Yeah. I actually have sent them I think that exact image. :thumbsup:

    I didn’t have it on my phone but now I do :) I think you may have been the one that sent it to me awhile ago. Haha We will see if that is the one they use.
