Massively helpful and you make it look so easy - really appreciate you sharing as once I get my van will be one of the first jobs - especially as you’ve made it so straightforward to follow
Bought one and using your guide fitted it 👍 No problems apart for trying to understand the instructions, in the end do what we normally do and kept pressing buttons until all ok. Checked it the following day and mine doesn't turn off, even put the alarm on and locked it but, it still stays on. Have now unplugged it and will have to start pushing that little knob all over again 😂. Installed in a Fiat Ducato albeit the heavy 4.5T it is still the same dash and instrumentation.
Hi Mark. Thanks for the feedback. How long did you watch it. Mine stays on for about 30 seconds after I lock up but then it turns itself off. Hope you get it all sorted. Mine works great. If you don’t sort it out it may be a faulty unit.
Sat in the truck and used remote to lock it, stayed still for ages (didn't wont to activate alarm) must have been 2/3mins. Then unlocked and relocked from outside then checked in the morning and it was still on!!!! Unplugged it and will try it again over the wked. Not a great problem to unplug, just hope it isn't a chore to set up again.
@@markryder3996 Hi there did you ever sort out how to get the unit to turn off once ignition was off? we seem to be having the same trouble sometimes it turns off for a few hours sometimes just keeps coming back on !!
@@suelefevre4141 Hi Sue, no never got it sorted, made a few enquiries and found out that the plug in is permanently live. I just take the lead out from the unit and reconnect when I get back in the truck.
Great video and demonstration. I had seen this described in the CV group you mentioned but with me not being that handy I doubted whether I could make a good job of the install especially making it all look neat when done - well having seen that I think I could! Thumbs up!
Enjoying watching your vids🙂. We don’t have a CV but did seriously consider one! Having watched you, Black Pearl and Wizard in the Wild we should have, for all the useful content you guys put out. That said I think I will be using your link to get the old man a head up display for our van - it will keep him busy for a bit 😂. Thanks
Hi Ruth, thanks for taking the time to watch my videos. Just like to try and share any useful. The HUD really is fantastic and I know lots of people who have now bought one and haven't heard one negative thing about them.
Great content on your videos enjoy watching for all the tips and advice. The HUD is currently out of stock unfortunately 😕 great idea, hopefully be back in stock soon 👍
Thanks for watching. The HUD is excellent and I use it constantly. Was well worth the money for me. I am always honest about the products I review. I don't get paid so I can say what I like.
Hi there. After seeing the video I bought one through your affiliate link. Fitting was a doddle although not yet stuck it down permanenty as unsure exactly where I want it. The only thing I'm having trouble with is understanding the manual - maybe just me!
The manual isn’t the easiest to follow. I just had a play around with it until I got what I wanted. Julie has actually thrown the manual away now. I’m so pleased I scanned it before she did so I have a back up. The link is just a link and Amazon don’t pay me for it but thanks anyway. Hope you figure it all out and you’re as happy with it as I am. Definitely one of my better ideas. Thanks for watching the channel and leaving the comment. 👍🏻
Hi, checked out the link, thanks, but it says"OBDll mode is not compatible with hybrid electric vehicle,diesel car, pickup truck, RV, computer modified " I assume that this is incorrect and can be used on Diesel vehicles? Thanks
Hi we have just put one in our CV40 - however keeps coming on randomly without the engine on - we have disconnected at the moment - did this happen with yours ?
This might be a really daft question 🤔 I have an autosleeper Peugeot base vehicle 2019 the speedometer is the standard dial and like many it's tricky to see. Does the heads up convert the miles from a dial type to the digital on the screen. I wear glasses for reading and different ones for driving so can't see the speedo that clearly 😳
@@TravellingfromScratch thank you I will look out for when they back in stock and give it a good you did a great fitting video and pretty sure I could follow it without any probs 😀
Hi very good video, I opened the link you put on for the HUD display and three came up, which look similar but which one did you actually get. There is one at about £60 with another at about £30. Kind Regards
Hi I have received a HUD. for Our campervan the same as Your one but the manual is in German is there any way that You could send Me a copy in English. many thanks.
Yeah no problem. If you give me your email address I will send a copy to you. Send an email to cvtravellingfs@gmail.com with your request and I will sort it out for you. 👍
Hi there bought one of these from Amazon. have got it working fine except for turning itself off when van is switched off. My battery on van is 13.6/8. I have altered settings in the HUD menu 9 and have tried 13.2 and 14.0. to try and get it to stay switched off when van not on. Also setting 10 in menu i have set to 10 seconds for it to go off as well. However what it does it goes from speed 0 at standstill to 0.0 then after 10 seconds turns off BUT after couple minutes comes back on again and find battery then about minute later goes to 0 again then 0.0 and off then once again comes on again and repeats but will not stay off. Can you tell me if yours does this or if you managed to get it to stay off when your van is switched off please. If so what are your settings on your menu. other than that I have found it to work well. do hope you can help me perhaps send me your settings so I can try those. Many thanks Jim
Not at all. I have been using it for ages and my battery is fine. It turns off about 30 seconds after the ignition goes off. It's probably my favourite upgrade. Love it
@@peterrider3471 If it has an obd port or a usb port then it should work. Obviously I can't say for certain as I don't have that vehicle but you can try it and if it doesn't work you can send it back. If I had to make an educated guess I would say that it will work no problem. It's a universal fitting so should be fine. Give it a go.

@@markryder3996 Hi Mark Ah ok. well I sent off to the people I bought it from to see if they know what to do will let you know what happens. Sue
just bought one today for my ducato based swift, going to fit it at the weekend

You don’t need to remove big the panel under the steering wheel. Just remove the small fuse box panel and you can easily feed the cable through.
Very true but I have little fat fingers and it just makes it easier for me. 👍🏻😁
Love this will add to my wife’s Amazon shopping list , you are costing me a fortune 😩
Sorry Stuart. I loved it. 👍🏻
Brilliant 👏
You're a top bloke , enjoying your vids with your upgrades and honest opinions, delivered with humour as well.
Cheers 🍻 👍
Awesome, thank you!
Another useful video. Thanks for sharing.

Looks great 👍🏻
Thanks for taking the time to watch
I'm guessing that the knurled wheel next to where you plug the cable in on the unit is for the brightness of the display?
No. That's to change what the display shows on the windscreen.
Hi great Vlog what make is the HUD
Hi didnt see it go off when ignition was switched off ?

Hi Jill, that's exactly what it does and it makes it so much easier to read. It's one of my favourite mods.
@@TravellingfromScratch thank you I will look out for when they back in stock and give it a good you did a great fitting video and pretty sure I could follow it without any probs 😀
Saw this, bought one, fitted it, awesome. Thanks a mill 👍🤗🚐
Very welcome Andy. I think it’s an excellent little addition to any vehicle. 👍🏻
Is the unit universal???? Thanks
How did you get the end of the cable/plug up through the top dash. You seem to have missed showing us this stage?
It's OK..it was easier than I thought. Great instruction video too
Hey Tom. Please you got it sorted. Simple isn't it. It's a great little bit of kit for the money!
Happy times. You'll love it I'm sure. 👍
Hi very good video, I opened the link you put on for the HUD display and three came up, which look similar but which one did you actually get. There is one at about £60 with another at about £30.
Kind Regards
The one I got was about £30. Works great. Fantastic addition to my van.
@@TravellingfromScratch
Thanks very much for that, keep up the good work

Mine doesn’t do that Jim. Think you could have a faulty one. I would return it to Amazon.
Does that run your battery down ?
Not at all. I have been using it for ages and my battery is fine. It turns off about 30 seconds after the ignition goes off. It's probably my favourite upgrade. Love it
@@TravellingfromScratch hi will it fit my 155 auto quest Peugeot boxer motorhome?
