My 2013 SE does not have the heads up display.
Has anyone got an aftermarket one which they could recommend.

I've only researched this online - have not committed as yet. I would suggest a simple display such as speed only. Some of the HUDs are quite tacky and have more lights than a Christmas tree.

Some only rely on GPS for speed (which is normally fine) others plug into the OBD2 port.

I suspect that they don't work too well in bright conditions and you need to stick a translucent patch to the inside of the windscreen.

Let's us know how you go!

Salisbury, I agree with the mass of unnecessary information some display. I want speed only.
Still haven’t found the one I want, will go and demo from a car shop. 2013 SDV8 4.4 SE Luxor.

I have a factory fit one in my 640d …. I switch it off. It’s annoying more than it is useful once you get past the gimmick of it personally. I certainly would not be looking to after fit one , just don’t think it would be useful. V8 or else ...

Just more evidence of how we're all different. Previously I'd have never spec'd HUD in an options list, but it was on the car when I bought it and having had it for a couple of years, now don't like being without it in other cars. Its great to have speed there without glancing down...but I also like the limit, cruise, and next junction flashing up when they become relevant. Certainly worth it for me. Mike - MPx

I retrofitted a factory HUD dash to my 13MY L405 and fitted a cheap aftermarket £30-£40 HUD in the JLR box under the dash... Its a large black box with several mirrors inside. I believe through some form of witchcraft, the mirrors somehow take away the double/treble images you get from the aftermarket systems and the reason why you use the sticker on the windscreen... My wife now owns my old RR and loves the HUD system just like i did...

Hope that helps

Craig. How difficult is retrofitting a HUD 2013 SDV8 4.4 SE Luxor.

No harder than changing a dash and a little fabrication of the HUD box to take an aftermarket solution…
