The details are at Defi Shop. The VSD2 is available with english units and looks neat but I'm holding out for the Sport VSD. It's only available in metric units now but one in english units is supposedly in development. Email them, maybe they'll speed the process along. ------------------ Louis Wang Sugar Land, TX 1998 Black E0 #3826 http://web.wtez.net/tw57472

HUD = heads up display. It projects instrument readings into your field of vision. Carryover from the aviation world where visibility is paramount. ------------------ Louis Wang Sugar Land, TX 1998 Black E0 #3826 http://web.wtez.net/tw57472 [This message has been edited by louisw (edited September 28, 2000).]

HUD's make it so you don't have to glance down and look at your speedometer while you're driving.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming that the HUD gets it's speed reading from the OBD, so it isn't prone to speedometer error?

At least not on my car. The HUD I installed is accurate. I had my GPS in the car with me, And they read the exact same. I also compared it to my OBD2 scanner and it was dead on with that as well. So the speedo itself is whats not calibrated.
