    Cleaning/Protecting in front of Audi HUD

    Hello all, just looking for tips/tricks for cleaning in front of the raised HUD on an Audi. I can't reach in front of the HUD to clean and protect the dash.

    Thanks!

    I have the HUD in my Audi. It's a definitely a tight fit to clean the windshield. Here's a pic of what I use. The towel is a glass towel from the Rag Company. The Sprayway is streak free and the spatula is silicone and is flexible enough to get in between the Hud and the glass. Not the most elegant method but it works.

    Sorry, I had to edit my post.

    How do you get to the actual dash to clean and use 303?

    Ok, just added two pics to Flickr.

    1. For Paul. Shows the HUD (heads up display) from the drivers point of view.

    2. Spray the towel with 303 then wedge the spatula between the windshield and towel and slide the spatula and towel sideways to detail the leading edge of the dashdash. When cleaning the windshield the towel goes between the windshield and spatula using Sprayway glass cleaner.

    I’m feeling generous and need some masking tape.... I’ll trade TP for the tape roll for roll.

    I’ll even include 2 sheets of Clorox wipes and a squirt of hand sanitizer

    First, your Audi looks great! I would have loved an S6 or at least an A6 Competition.

    And that spatula idea, frickin' ingenius! Thank you for the picture too! I'll be doing that asap on my dash.

  10. Thanks dennis b thanked for this post
