a compass........

I have been looking for one for ages....
you got a pic?

I cannot access Photobucket to get a pic from there, will try tonight

You will need to be very choosey on what wiring and guages you put anywhere near a compass or did you mean you have a really BIG compass that will need teh space of 3 to 4 gauges?

why don't you get a HUD compass, that way you won't need a pod

I know you said you didn't want links but I've never been one to pay much attention to what's been said, so here is a google search of nissan patrol pillar pod images.

Knock yourself out

and if you just do something crazy, you get a whole plethora of pods

This one is obviously for left hand drive but hey, why not, you can never have too many gauges and things hey.

I have a silva compass on top of the dash, but found some marine in dash ones from the states that look
exactely like a 52mm gauge, centre top the batteries dont affect the compass,
It only moves if you place the compass near the A pillars, where the batteries are.

But what ET is saying is that being a compass is such a very sensitive piece of equipment, any electricity running through a cable nearby emits EMF which could disturb it.
