Re: RearView mirror

If you want a compass you might also consider a GPS unit.

Obviously, because it is digital it will require some wiring, and since you don't already have wiring there it will have to be added.
As mentioned above, a GPS unit or even a compass mounted on your dash would be more reasonable. THe rearview mirror might be cheap, but that will be offset by the headache of trying to get the thing installed the way you want it.
