Default Fox Compass

GM Fox armored cars had a Pioneer aircraft type compass for determining direction but it was somewhat of a mystery where it was mounted. With some detective work with Les Fisher we were able to determine it went on the armour to the driver's left between the front plate and the vision block. My Fox apparently never had a compass fitted but those that did have a square steel plate welded here for mounting it.
