I saw one mounted and it looked great in the dashboard. It was mounted between tachometer and speedometer. I am planning to buy/install soon. Anybody have opinion on mounting a compass there.
Performance of a compass is much more imoportant to me than looks.<br /><br />I try to mount them as far away as possible from electrical components. Particularly an instrument like a tach. that has windings (magnetic field) in it.<br /><br />Getting them near a speaker can really cause reading deflections.
