Also take a look in the Factory Service manual with regards to the overhead
console. The installation of the compass requires a special tool for
Degaussing. I just added the basic overhead console to my 98 that didn't
come with one. The parts for just the basic console came to about $125.00.
Buying the additional parts for the computer and compass along with all the
wiring harness will be very expensive. Best bet is to get it installed from
the factory.
