Or maybe it's a "head's up display" (head is up).

It has always been known as "head-up display" (and is the proper way), especially in all articles dating back to a 1986 patent. It just appears that Oxford shows "Heads-Up" as a synonym but most don't use it from what I've seen.

Kinda like a gas petal, hitting the breaks, and key less entry?

Perhaps they could just care less, irregardless....
