Re the compass postings of late:  I put an S.I.R.S. compass, panel-mounted, in my ES.  Not happy with it.  Can't compensate it -- on some headings it's still 13 degrees off despite pegged compensating screws.  Also, the angle of the viewing window is poor -- unless the compass is right at the very top of your panel, you kinda have to crane your neck down to read it.
 
'Bout ready to toss it in the trash bin and put in something different.
