Compass on rear view mirror

I saw all the US spec f8x come with a digital compass on the corner of rear view mirror.
I've never sat in another f8x apart from mine. Do you guys have it?

Yes, it's there but I like to keep it off. I wouldn't mind if it was not there. I don't use it.

It took me a month to understand its a compass. Not my brightest moment.

There is a very small hole in the bottom of the housing. Press it with something that fits in there. Also you can turn back on by the same method.

Not sure for you who don't have it already if this will turn it on or not.

Couldn't find any hole all around the mirror. I think this is just another feature not available on Australia spec BMWs, same as Homelink(which Porsche Australia offers).

I don't have it on ours either as far as I can tell.

I don't really see why I need it either, as I have a big sat nav screen that shows me which way north is!
