Experience with Heads Up Displays

[ahdoman]

I've got a speedo app on my phone (Android) that will turn itself into a HUD. You just set it on your dash. Obviously it only works real good at night. It just sucks when you go around a corner too fast and the phone slides across your dash and out the window.

I super-glued a neodymium magnet to my GPS mount. There are lots of places on the dash where the steel frame is close enough to the plastic for the magnet to "stick." None directly over the instrument cluster though. It stays in place even during the hardest cornering, but comes loose with just the slightest tug.

Conveniently there is steel right below the glovebox so whenever I park it takes no time at all to pull the GPS loose and stick it upside down below the glovebox hidden away from prying eyes.
