Head Up Display Retrofit

Just came across this on amazon, the same model is even cheaper on ebay.

I think you have to put a polarising film on the windshield so not sure how annoying that would be.

Anyone tried one? Plugs into the OBDII port.

Part of me likes it, part of me thinks why? As the dash tells you most of that info.

I like it. For 30 odd quid whats the problem with this wee toy when others will happily spend a fortune on all matter of utter crap for their cars?

One of the very few things i'd change about the scirocco is the lack of a big digital speedo to compliment the analogue dials and this device remedies the problem.

If you have access to VCDS or know someone who has then just enable the big speedo.

Big mph digital speed in the dash :yes:
