Exactly What I Needed
Short story: I’m very happy with this product and would buy it again. Longer story: The speedometer on my 30+ year old Toyota pickup truck is failing. It works most of the time, but it’s increasingly common for it to stay at 0 mph or add 25 mph to the cruising speed. I bought this device to serve as a backup speedometer for those latter two cases. In my experience, the speed shown on the device is +/- 2 mph from the indicated speed when the vehicle’s speedometer is working properly. My only frustration is that the device takes some time to acquire the satellites and begin displaying the speed. On long trips, this isn’t a big deal. When I’m running errands, I simply leave the device connected to a small battery bank, so it stays on throughout the trip. That solves the problem nicely. I opted to mount the display on the steering wheel console using small Velcro squares. It’s easy to see and doesn’t interfere with my ability to read the other gauges. Evident in the photo is the ease of viewing and the fact that I really need to clean the interior of the truck.

Simple to use & easy to view.
UPDATE 8-13-2024: I still have this and it still works great. Accuracy is excellent. I don't have any issues with brightness at night. Strongly recommended if you need one of these. (EOU) I absolutely love this HUD! It is easy to see. Bold bright green digits. Nothing else. No clutter. Set up is as easy as plugging the USB cord into a type A port in your vehicle and plugging the other end into the HUD. The cord is very long. The adhesive pad is very sticky but it's the type of adhesive that you can remove an object from and still use both. As for accuracy, I noticed at higher speeds (about 55 mph) the HUD displayed maybe 1 mph faster than my vehicles speedometer but I am not sure which is correct, my vehicle or the GPS. A 1 or 2 mph reading is not enough to cause me to return this product. It is keeping me at the speed limits and moving in traffic safely so that's what's important to me. My vehicle speedometer is very difficult to read in the daylight. I found it necessary to modify the HUD a little by adding a "base" to it. When I first tried it out it would fall forward as I left a stopped position. I wasn't using the sticky pad then because I hadn't determined where I wanted to place the device yet. But I liked the location of the little tray on my dash and so I began testing it there. The base that I found was an approximately 2" plastic lid, black in color, from one of my wifes makeup jars she had saved and let me have. I put the sticky pad in the center of the lid and then centered and attached the HUD to it. Tipping over problem solved! I have to route the cord still. I have adhesive clips to do that with. Be sure to follow the initial setup instructions carefully. When you first plug the device in, let it communicate with the satellite for initial GPS coordinates (I didn't drive until the device was completely booted up). That data is "saved", the manufacturer has told me. If you unplug it on another day for some reason, your initial coordinates are there when you power it up again and use it. I unplug mine and hide it so as not to tempt a thief into breaking into my vehicle and ransacking it. I don't keep anything of value it my vehicle but I don't want my window busted in either. A word about the temperature range. The manufacturer has told me that the range printed is celsius. So, that 70 degree high end range is about 160 degrees fahrenheit, which is about as hot as a closed up car will get normally. Vent the window. I have not noticed a "brightness" issue at night when using it but that may be because of my placement on the dash. But that would be an easy modification. A piece of film hanging in front of it. I like this unit because it just displays speed. There is no other car data to clutter it up, like my instrument cluster. It is portable. I saw what seemed to be identical HUD's but I chose this Seller's product because it was a "2023" model. Seemed current to me and some comments I had read about other similar products with faults from those users indicated an item needing better internal components. So, I paid $3 more for what I believe is an up-to-date product that suits my use. A word about product customer service. I have been in touch with the company (and seller, VJOYCAR) and their service is A+ rated in my opinion. They are prompt to reply and answer any questions. They are very polite. The product is made in China (as are most US goods). I am completely satisfied with this product. It is simple, it is easy AND it does the job. Highly recommended. K & D UPDATE: I am still using this product and it is working absolutely great. I am totally happy with it.

Worked to check speed on jet skis
This was so inexpensive I half way expected it to not work. But it worked great! I used these to check the speeds of my jet skis, but there's no place to plug it in on my old jet skis. So I used my cell phone fast charging battery power bank and it powered them up just fine!The screen is very readable in the bright outdoor sun too. The green really stands out. 5 stars!

Works Great. Definitely recommend
Ordered this a few months ago for an old Oldsmobile Cutlass that my speedometer was not working on. Got tired of using the speedometer app so purchased this. Works excellent & only takes a few seconds to sync to car at start up. Very accurate on speed as I compared it to my app. Great quality. Definitely gonna order another one for my lifted truck since my truck wheels are 40" & my speedometer is always off by 5-10mph

Good value and easier than a new speedo cable on my junk
Very handy, super easy to set up and will lit. Can read it easily on a bright day and was accurate according to Google maps.

Not super accurate
Product works okay, but isn't super accurate above about 30 MPH. At highway speeds, it will say you are going 72 or 73 when you are actually doing 70 (based on a much more expensive, known accurate GPS Unit. Also, occassionally loses GPS satellite lock and goes stupid in bad weather or mountainous terrain (again, a more expensive GPS unit doesn't have the issue at the same time). It's okay for a reference, but I wish it had an adjustment so I could tweak it for accuracy. As is, I just have to remember that I'm actually going about 2 or 3 MPH slower than it actually says.

Works on 2002 toyota 4runner. Must have sub plug.
Not at all complicated to install. Just unbox plug in sub wait 30 seconds and 0 miles will pop up. As far as accuracy. I'm pretty sure it's close. Works in 2002 toyota 4runner. Luckily I previously installed a stereo system with sub plug in. My speed odometer went out 2 years ago. The part that might fix the problem runs 700 to 900 used. On top of that .You can hardly find that part. And no that part is no longer made by toyota. And yes from what I found most 4runners have the same problem. So if you have a 4runner and your odometer stoped working. This is what you definitely want to purchase. Must have sub plug in. Not a problem. If you don't have one. Just buy the one that will plug in your cigarette lighter. Or in stall a sterosystem that has one. Stereo is very easy to in stall. YouTube is an excellent source. 👍Talk about a proud moment. I was 😁 from 👂 2 👂 when I installed my own sterosystem.
