Guest Anonymous Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 I'm looking into a TGP HUD unit as a replacement for my 1992 one. I'm looking to replace it because the cable-driven mechanism is getting old and difficult to operate. The TGP HUD's have the adjustment right on the unit itself, correct? -Is the TGP HUD unit the same size as the 1992, ie, will it fit and bolt into my current dash opening? -Is the wiring the same? -Is the grille ontop removable? i don't like how it looks. Thanks for your help guys. R Quote

I was wondering about those two myself. It's not physically the same size but I don't know if the mounting points are all the same. -Is the grille ontop removable? i don't like how it looks. Yes, but it looks bad without it. Personally I think the grill makes it look less cheapy than the later ones. Quote

no1kicker Posted August 30, 2005 Report Posted August 30, 2005 They mount differently. The dashpad of one wouldn't work on the other. They both use the same wires from the speedometer/headlight switch, but the connectors themselves are different. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted August 31, 2005 Report Posted August 31, 2005 Damn, thats too bad. I really wanted to nix my cable-adjusted ones for one of the TGP type. Thanks for the info, though. Quote
no1kicker Posted August 31, 2005 Report Posted August 31, 2005 If you want to do that, just get the dashpad and connector along with the HUD itself. It won't be hard to swap since you already know which wires are needed. I had the TGP HUD in first, then switched to a 92 one. I personally like the later one better. Quote
perfecseal Posted August 31, 2005 Report Posted August 31, 2005 I have the hud and dash pad out of the 93 gtp that I parted out.. and A tgp that i am taking apart to restore I can take pics and see how far off it would be.. Quote
