Heads-Up Display (HUD) Calibration in Dallas–Fort Worth
A heads-up display projects your speed and driver-assist info onto the windshield. After a windshield replacement, that projection can land crooked, blurry, or off to one side — and it needs to be realigned to the new glass.
A heads-up display (HUD) bounces an image off a special layer in your windshield so you see your speed — and often navigation and driver-assist alerts — floating in your line of sight. It only looks crisp and centered when the projector and the glass are matched precisely.
Replace the windshield and the new glass sits a hair differently, so the HUD image can show up doubled, tilted, dim, or shifted to one side. Recalibration re-aligns the projection to the new windshield so it’s sharp and centered again.
When a HUD needs recalibration
Have your HUD checked if, after a windshield replacement, you notice:
- A blurry or doubled (ghosted) image instead of a crisp readout.
- The display sitting off-center or tilted in your view.
- Dim or partially cut-off projection.
- Driver-assist icons in the HUD not lining up with the road.

Common questions
My heads-up display looks blurry after a windshield replacement — can that be fixed?
Yes. A doubled or blurry HUD after new glass is a common alignment issue — the projection is no longer matched to the windshield. Recalibrating realigns it so the image is crisp and centered again.
Does every windshield replacement need a HUD recalibration?
Only vehicles equipped with a heads-up display, and typically only when the projection looks off after the glass is replaced. If you also have a forward camera for lane-keep or automatic braking, that usually needs its own ADAS calibration.

Jose has been a great help in diagnosing, troubleshooting, and reprogramming the airbags on my 2016 Mazda Miata. I’ve found his pricing to be very competitive, and his turnaround time is quick. Additionally, working with Jose is convenient since he’s mobile.
Excellent service!! Sent my SRS module from FL to have it checked. The day they received it, they had it fixed and mailed back out the very same evening. When I received it, plugged it in and SRS light on dash gone. Thanks LockNCal, very much appreciated!
