[Qsilver7]

Although the OP hasn’t been on the forum since 2015…I’m not sure why not having the compass embedded in the rear view mirror is an issue when you can always tell which direction you’re traveling by looking at your nav screen.

Even if you select one of the other map perspectives where the map isn't always facing north (direction of travel or perspective/bird’s eye)…there are arrows that show due north and your direction of travel. A compass in the rear view mirror is redundant…when it is always on your nav screen.
