Type S 10002 Black Compass

This compass worked fine in the HOUSE, but once in the vehicle, it became stuck, did not turn properly, and the adhesive for the installation was weak. This is the first thing I have purchased on Amazon that was a dud... It's definitely a dud though... get something else.

For the money it is good. But could not install behind the mirror nor on the dashboard because of some magnetic interference that won't let it turn. The only place it worked for me was up inside the windshield next to where they usually place the oil change sticker. However in dark you can not see what it shows. So if it only shows one direction no matter where you go, it is stuck in a magnetic field and need to move it away from it. The sticker is good so don't be afraid to try on several places until you get it right.

i honestly don't know what the other reviewer are talking about the stuck compasses but i've bought about 10 of these compasses (at different times) for myself, my sister, and friends and was recommended by a friend to buy this and i've had no problems whatsoever with these products. it's simple, small, and easy to place. i have not have the compass being stuck pointing one direction yet, but maybe i'm just lucky so far.

This is the worst thing I have ever bought off of Amazon.
The compass always points West.
What a piece of crap.

I purchased this for use in my Ford Mustang and am very disappointed. It's calibration is distorted every place I tried: the rearview mirror, the entire windshield, the dash face and the dash top, all to no avail. Because it is MADE FOR REARVIEW MIRROR MOUNTING, I felt sure there would be no trouble with mounting it there.
