Head up display

Has anyone done a HUD retrofit ? I've seen a few options online that plug into the OBD II port, but not sure if they will work very well. I'm coming to the G world from cars that have had a HUD for several years, so I'm used to having it. (same with wireless charging). It won't be a big deal adjusting to not having these options though.

I have this option on my Lexus, and the HU display disappears when you wear polarized sunglasses -- it works better at night.

I had heads up display on my Lexus LC 500 Performance Package. I sold it for a Porsche GT3, I don’t miss it or the heads up display.

I imagine it would be hard to do a HUD with the G due to the slope of the windshield and the short depth of the dash.
