Yeah that is true. If anyone with HUD needs to have their windshield replaced they must get the genuine factory replacement. If they don't have HUD any 3rd party windshield would be fine, but with HUD there's an engineered coating inside the window that is specifically designed for the projection to be clear and focused.
After GM was using the HUD system from Rockwell they brought in the Nightvision system. Late-90s or early-2000s Cadillacs were the first cars with Nightvision combined with head up display.
