Alternative to the Overhead Console conversion

My wife's 02 Venture did not have the overhead console nor the display mirror.
What I upgrated to was a auto dimming mirror (from a Tahoe) from the local junk yard. Now I just have to get one for my daily driver. If I get any extra, would any here be interested in buying it?
I got the mirror that displays both the outside temperature AND the compass at the same time. Some mirrors you have to toggle between the temp display and the compass display which I didn't like.
The temp sensor has to be installed in the front of the van and wired to the mirror.
The auto dimming mirror is a great feature, my wife loves it and it shows the outside temp and the direction at the same time. I even installed an after market DVD player and monitor to keep the 3 kids quiet and entertained. I'll take some pics and post it here in the next few days.
Thanks
Darren.
