Default HUD for 98 coupe?
I've seen horror stories of having to take the entire dash apart to get this done....but its put away for the winter anyway, so.....
Can the 98 C5 Coupe be upgraded to the HUD?

I did it to my ´98 coupe. One of the best mods I did, and I am proud of my work.
Go ahead and do it.

No horror story. Just a bit time consuming. Go for it!

What parts do you need and roughly how much did it cost?

Nope, only the late model 99s and up are HUD enabled. But you can get a HUD enabled cluster off ebay pretty cheap.
