so i peiced everything together for less than $900 shipped. all i had left is the windshield. I called the local auto glass shop and told them i have a coupe with HUD. they then told me it would cost $1200 for the HUD windshield and $125 to install. i bout had a heart attack. but then, out of curiosity i asked how much for the windshield off of a hatchback. she looked in the comp and it ended up being only $180 installed.
wow, what a crock! 1200 for the HUD windshield. i still wanna keep my HUD. i've heard you can get the windshield tinted in that spot. does anyone know any details about it. has anyone here done it. do yall know what type of tint it would need to be. i figure i can ask the tinting place tommarrow, but wanted to see if anyone had any tips. thanx

Goto a junkyard!!! Or... Hell...you probably could even spray some sort of reflective spray tint in that area on the non-HUD glass peice.
I would just get whatever you can cheap for now, then later on when someone on the board is parting out their HUD coupe, make an offer for the windshield.
