From the looks of it, it looks like there use to be a compass mounted in this 4 to 5" diameter hole just behind my gauge panel on the flat area before the visor window deal.
Anyone have a good picture of a stock panther dash area?
If it is a compass, any idea where I could source one? Right now I just have a polished stainless cover over it.
I should have grabbed a better picture, but this is all I took today. She is a mess right now lol, lots of small projects going on.
anyhow you can kinda see where there should be something just above the upper left gauge.

There is a new compass that looks like it will fit, that was just posted in the swap shop.
