HUD Display

Advance owners, How much info can be displayed on your HUD at one time? Do you have multiple options to view or do you scroll through the options and get to choose what you would like to see on a limited display? I have HUD on my Mazda and really like it but the RDX HUD looks so much nicer from the limited time I had to see it. The only thing shown though was MPH,

Here's where I'm at, I love the A-Spec but it doesn't have the HUD. I'm not a big fan of the Advance wheels either though I could go aftermarket later on for those.

Going off of memory you have 4-5 options - speed, speed+nav, speed+nav+Lkas/acc and nothing. Probably missing one. It works with polarized sunglasses although it is dimmer. The HUD itself is very bright but adjustable in intensity and vertical position.

You can also customize things like radio, contacts etc on the HUD but I haven’t done that yet. It’s pretty impressive. I really like it

Thanks for mentioning that - it's one thing I forgot to check out when doing test drives.

If you push the APPS button, you can choose the audio source and then have it display the information about that source.
It will display current speed and the speed limit of the road/street you are on as well.

I wish it would let me move the display higher up the window since I am tall, the reflection is lower on the window.

I take it you used the HUD adjustment button and reached the maximum point? I'm 6'2" and it allowed me to move the HUD up to a level that was perfect

Sure but to get the full frame I have to slide the frame down. I can live fine with where it is but wish it was more flexible is all.. color would be nice too

Does the HUD display appear to float over the hood like the Audi HUD or is it just a reflection on the windshield?

I’ve not seen the Audi HUD but to me it looks like it floats.

Thanks. Many years ago, I drove a friend's Corvette (since I was the only sober one) and the HUD just confused me with the glare off the windshield. I was pretty sure Acura would do it right and have it appear to float over the hood rather than an irritating reflection. With my driving style, my right hand seems to block speedometers located on the right side of the dash so the HUD is important to me.

The HUD is one of my favorite things about this car. I rarely look at the center stack when I’m driving.

Same.
It was a big selling factor for me. Once you have HUD, it's hard to do without it.

The HUD is absolutely terrific and it sure saves me time reaching to the touchpad to do anything...

Are the HUD settings of height on the windshield and info shown tied to the driver 1 / driver 2 memory settings? From test drives of other vehicles I don’t think my wife is going to like the HUD, but I love it.

Anyone able to show carplay audio information on the HUD? I can use the selector wheel to start carplay but then it only ever says the name of the song that one time and never again.

Press the left selector wheel and it will display the info again momentarily.
