2019 Camaro windshield tint and HUD
Does anyone know if tinting my windshield will mess up my HUD??

saw on a c7 corvette forum that people were saying it does not affect the hud at all.

I had 70% tint put on the windshield of my ZL1 back in August. The HUD display looks exactly the same as it did before the tint.

Windshield tint can make it impossible to use polarized glasses, but the HUD already makes that a no-go...

I have the Air 70 on the windshield and can see the HUD just fine day and night. I would have gotten the 90 if they had had it. Sometimes it's hard to see on a corner with no street lights or other illumination. Of course, I'm in the senior division around here so that may not effect a much younger person.

Here's a picture showing how much tint you get with the 70%.

I’m able to see just fine at night. And I’m in the social security group. If anything, the 70% tint cuts down on some of the glare from on coming headlights.

You need a pair of polarized sunglasses with the pattern rotated 90 degrees; many optical places sell them. Try looking at your HUD after rotating your sunglasses 90 degrees as a test; the brightness will be almost normal.
