Brentbba said:If you want temp, compass, barometer, etc. I picked up a Wayfinder 7000 for $95 and it's wiring kit for $15. Inside/outside temp, cardinal point compass, bearing point, altitude or barometer are amongst it's features. When hardwired will automatically turn off after 10 minutes so it won't drain it's internal battery or your car battery. Auto backlight sensor feature as well when hardwired.
Gauge said:Now I have a question - if the altimeter needs to be calibrated so often, then why bother having it? I mean, if I have to verify it against every road sign I see, then why bother using it, I'll just read the road signs. I know the altimeter works, and it is very accurate, because I can see the altitude rise as I climb hills - even as little as 5 or 10 feet, but in terms of overall accuracy (i.e., "what is the altitude now?), I am kinda dissappointed with the Wayfinder.
Brentbba said:Christo - yep, that's the one I was looking at. Just out of curiosity - how's their glass mount system working out?
Looks like you've used the old OEM mount for the rear view mirror for your GPS unit - nice.
