I can only speak from BMW experience, but to answer your question, no.

I have seen HUD on E60 5 series without the special windshield, and it was just a tad darker. The wrong windshield was put in, and that is how I was able to see the before and after. BMW uses a film in the entire windshield even though just a section is used for the HUD.

So, take that for what you will.
