Setup
The HUD Plus is simple to set up. The unit comes with a removable sticky bracket that can be attached to your dash. From that point, you just need to plug in the power cord to your cigarette lighter. You can place the HUD plus anywhere on your dash wherever makes the most natural line of sight for you to check without disturbing your view too much. The setup I used in the video isn't ideal, as I had to place the units on the curved part of my dash as this was the best spot to effectively film both units.
Based on my dash each car dash will be different ideally you would want it in a position that means your eyes don’t need to leave the road to check the speed however that might not always be possible.
Once you’ve selected the position and stuck down the bracket and the HUD plus unit take the tint out and spray the windscreen with soapy water. Then apply the tint and use something with a flat surface (Credit card or ruler to smooth out the bubbles). I can't stress this enough, make sure the unit is on and the windscreen is wet (don't do this when your windscreen is hot as the water will dry out too quickly - I'm definitely not speaking from experience and a failed tint installation). The unit needs to be turned on as it can deceptive as to how high you need to place the tint to capture the unit display. Your credit card or whatever you're using to smooth out the tint will push any excess water out as well after you're done just wipe down the windscreen and you're all set.

Features
Calibration
The Calibration setting on your HUD is there if you want it to match your speedometer as all car speedometers. By Australian road safety standards, your speedometer will always overestimate your speed by 0-10% plus 4KM/H. You can calibrate your HUD Plus to match this as well. To do this, you will need to make sure the calibration is first set to 0 then drive at a slow, consistent speed like 50km/h and observe the discrepancy between the HUD Plus and your speedometer. Once you ascertain the difference, you just need to adjust the calibration up or down to match your speedo.
Overspeed
The HUD Plus has a feature for over speed, which will alert you whenever you go faster than a certain set speed between 0-180km/h. There are two levels you can set for this. An example would be an Overspeed alert at 130KM/H and the second one at a higher level 150KM/H. You can set this up by tapping the menu button until the HUD plus says ‘OverSpeed setting Level 1” from that point just press the up arrow or down arrow to select your speed.
Brightness
The HUD Plus allows for six brightness setting controls, which go from 1-5 (1 being the lowest and five being the brightest)
There is also an automatic adjustment setting which will alter the brightness based on your lighting conditions.
