Head Up Display - Mr2 Volunteers Wanted

[SpeedView]

Hi folks,

I've started a company to sell SpeedView Head up Displays (HUDs). These little gadgets project your speed onto the windscreen so that you can see your speed and see where you’re going at the same time.

I'm looking for two volunteers for each model (gurus) to give it a whirl on each generation of MR2, in exchange for getting it really, really, cheap - £40 for a Head up Display.

Dead handy if you’ve fitted a mario-kart sized steering wheel like I have on my MX5 (sorry), stopping 9 points turning into 12, or to get a speedo that reads spot on even after playing with gearboxes, diffs, or tyres. You know you want one: bling and something to fiddle with on Boxing Day... ;-)

Quick video:

Here's the deal:

I have the "normal" instructions here:

I would like a "how to" for each vehicle - something like this:

I'll sell you a unit for £60 including post (£10 off RRP), then refund you another £20 when you upload the "how to" to the forum.

You'll need to find three wires. Earth, ignition live, vehicle speed signal (VSS). Earth and ignition live are easy enough. Easiest place to get vehicle speed signal is usually behind the radio (if it adjusts its volume with the speedo) or instrument panel. I don't have the wiring diagram for any MR2s so you'll have to know how to find those - but otherwise installation is pretty straightforward and I'll be available to advise. Even if the speedo is mechanical there's a work-around for that too.

Anybody fancy being first? B)

Drop a reply in here, via PM, or info@speedview.co

I'm looking for volunteers for ALL makes and models. Thought I'd start with the Celica, MR2, Yaris, RAV4, and Corolla - but if you have something else and would like to give it a whirl that's great!

Last but by no means least - many thanks to admin Steve for supporting new businesses; a credit to toyotoaownersclub.com B)

[SpeedView]

Right!

Mk2 MR2s are keen then - maybe I should just target all the cars the come flying past me on the track...

PMs on their way, spots for Mk1s and later MR2s still open. B)

How about doing one for the Avensis T-180? I'd be up for that!

[SpeedView]

I would be interested in fitting one to my 1997 mk2 mr2 if you have one available?

Many thanks,.

Does it come with blue LEDs or only the colour shown? :P

I have a Toyota mr2 gti 1990 ;D. I have converted new vehicles into police cars in my previous job. and 'make how to' guides. Cutting dashes and bumpers to fitt switches lights sirens the whole shabang... If I was to fitt this product I would consider remooving the windscreen and sinking he HUD unit into the dash.
