So, here is the console, showing the direction and temp.

If you hold both the buttons for a couple of seconds, it will show your your degrees of direction.

So, Northeast at 38 degrees. Pretty cool.

That is pretty sweet. Too bad I don't have an overhead console.

You sure you just didn't reset the display to get the most up to date accurate temp reading?

the temp has the 'F', the compass doesn't.


Very nifty little find, I have no console display but I'm gonna check it out on my dads '99 for sure
