    I also looked at heads up displays but in a roadster the sun on the inside of the windshield washes out the projection. The Moon colum drop location could work.

    I hear you on the sunshine washing things out.
    Here's a pic of my 32's dash, I like it, but when the sun is low and behind you all is lost in the reflection.

    The steering wheel et al reflect badly as well, but it doesn't happen too often.

    It does seem that a Moon drop digi-instrument location would be workable.
    For several reasons, one being that the driver's body would shade the panel.
