I didn't get the compass mirror/homelink option with my car, but would definitely love one on board. I've been suggested the sphere compass that actually rolls as you drive, but I'm looking for something digital. What are some good, relatively cheap compasses? Thanks.

They make little battery powered digital LCD compasses that you can stick on your dash. Try any automotive parts store or automotive department in any discount store. They aren't very expensive.

I agree, a digital compass would be nice. It should have come standard with the car. Just my opinion, but I believe they didn't do this to encourage the purchase of the GPS unit.

Do like I did and get a radar detector with compass. Has 3 displays, Arrows, Letters and Numbers works great.

homelink comes with a digital compass? isn't the homelink the button that you can program to open up like your garage? I have that as part of the GT package. I don't see a digital compass though. Is that not availabe in the USA?

Thanks for the links. After some researching, I decided to settle for the PNI V2000. $24.99 brand new from ebay. Only thing that sucks is the $8 shipping. Oh well.
