Yes, they DID put them in with maplights, never with compasses. On the SS's, at least the 00-05's, the compasses were in the Upper console, along with the buttons for the sunroof, and computed gas mileage.

You can find it on ebay, I looked for a factory direct number, and had no such luck...

Ebay:

Rear View Mirror #1

Rear View Mirror #2



Hope that helps.

This guy, Perry, has a retrofit cable for adding the drivers info center to your car, if you are interested in having the factory compass and temp guage. $70.

Same with 06-7's. Trip computer is in the Speedo, allthough there are map lights. I do know the GMC Sierras do have it in the mirrors, so Id assume the same with avalanches, and Silverados. Might be something to look at.

Actually from what I understand that is for the DIC.... which has the compass and all that, only not in the rearview mirror, in the dash area, what they call the drivers information center. It's really handy, but would be worthless without all the buttons to control it... so I don't know how they'd do that.
