I saw this, this morning and had to do a double take.

Yes, that's a white, Tesla Model 3 pulled up at a petrol pump!

(Didn't hang around to see what happened when he tried to put the nozzle in the charge socket )

What's the HUD?

If you'd hung around?

Think this is called Eve'ing.

When an EV car blocks access to an ICE charging space.

I've never heard of this before. Could you post a clearer photo of how you have your phone placed & secured please?

No problem.

The phone sits in a holder on the dash. It's 3D printed now, but my first prototype was made from some aluminium sheet.

The front panel stops reflected glare when the sun shines off it and the phone is held in place with some non slip matting.

I also added a HUD reflector on the windscreen so I can see the display in sunlight. The app also allows you to adjust the brightness and colour of the numbers so at night I have it display red digits at lowest brightness.

Wow, you've put some thought and effort into that!

It was after I got used to a HUD in my 28kWh Ioniq, and then the Kona version I upgraded to didn't have it. You don't have to go to all that trouble though;

You can just put a non-slip mat on an old CD case and use that.
