This is pretty cool did anyone know about this?  Theres actually lever and the top of the HUD that pulls up so you can clean the glass under it!!!!!  I couldnt have been the first to discover this??

You're not the first.  Actually it comes apart farther than that.  I've taken mine apart and cleaned the mirrors inside and its MUCH brighter now.

There are mirrors on the inside of the HUD, yes.

I've posted pictures a few years ago of a disassembled TGP HUD.

Nevermind on the link above, it looks like my pictures are dead after all these years. They might be hosted on one of my two photobucket accounts though...I'll have to look.
